I’ve never really understood this multiplayer thing, sounds like a free energy gimmick. You can move more mass at the same speed without putting in more power.

    You’re basically trading energy to move higher volume of air. The fan can move smaller amount of air at higher speed, but larger amount at a gentle breeze feels nicer and helps with circulating the air in the room better. You could achieve it by taking that exact motor and slapping a bigger fan onto it, but that looks less cool and probably produces more noise? Maybe there’s some efficiency differences if the motor is better at spinning fast, but as a spherical cow in vacuum it should be similar.
