All blower/fan isn't applicable.


the brushed motor generates the ozone.


"Ozone created by motors do rubber ( to include seals) no good"

Shaded Pole motors don't have any brushes. Most ac motors do not have brushes, the exception being "universal" motors which can operate on AC or DC. Commonly used in things like drill motors.

Arcing is the the major producer of Ozone, think lighting and brush type dc or univeral ac / dc motors.

I wonder if you have it "over powered" with those fans?

I built a similar unit with a single tiny computer/electronics fan from Radio Shack:

My suit is dry overnight without fail.

Further, through trial and error I have noticed it is more effective when the fan pulls air "out" through the suit vs blowing air into the suit.
 
I like to occasionally give the inside of my suit a bath, especially if the weather is hot and I have been sweating while on shore, thus necessitating use of the drier. Helps keep the funk out.

Interesting point about pulling the air out instead of blowing it in. I may have to try that and see what happens.
 
I made mine a long time ago for two suits. But, it is way higher than my living room's ceiling....

So, I can't use it...

Are you using a battery as well?
