Anyone know the difference between these two Fans

[Daffy D]

I'm looking to buy a replacement wall fan.

 

Fed up with Hatari so thought I'd try Mitsubishi, they seem to have a good name.

 

So looking through Lazada I see there are a couple of 18in Remote models, W18-RA and W18-RZ-BL, but for the life of me I can't see the difference between them.

Mitsubishi 18" Remote Wall Fan W18-RZ-BL ( Blue Propeller )

Probably find the same on Lazada for 10k as well!

Maybe there is no difference. Sometimes even the same shops show the same item two times with different prices.

I suggest use the chat function and chat with them. They you also get an idea how fast the shop responds.

Agreed. Probably the same fan with different model numbers.
At the end of the day, just buy one and never ever research or compare afterwards.... just in case you did wrong. ????

The info on this screenshot would seem to indicate A and Z are different years of production ?? Sort of like production code on tyres. ??

 

 

Seems like a strange idea but I got it from Mitsubishi-Thailand website. despite the text is from Myanmar or Cambodia ??

Yea! Agree with that, never check after you made the purchase 

 

As for the different model numbers, I don't really care just curious what the difference is.

I was hoping it would be something more technical than just the price.

From shop selling both on Shopee the RZ is 2020 model and RA is 2021 model.

I'm willing to bet that the different codes are purely based on colour.

For example, the BL in W18-RZ-BL would suggest that the fan is black.

Interesting, but still strange. Why would they change the model number without changing any specks?

 

And the year numbering seems a bit strange RZ is 2020 model and RA is 2021 model. 

 

What about B to Y how are they going to fit

If you check my original post looks like BL means Blue Propeller  ????‍♂️

Have you never been in a supermarket before? 

 

Prices for the exact same item can and do vary... and not just in supermarkets... a manufacturer sells wholesale and then the retailer puts the price they want on it... sometimes the wholesale price can vary according to the volume purchased..
