Why We Conducted This Test
As Cirebon residents who regularly organize events, we’ve experienced firsthand the frustration of choosing fan rental services. Most information online is generic or promotional. For 60 days, we tested three major providers at actual Cirebon events to provide data-driven recommendations.
Our Mission: Provide Cirebon event organizers with factual comparisons based on real testing, not marketing claims.
Methodology: How We Tested
Test Locations (Real Cirebon Events):
- Wedding at Gedung Serba Guna Cirebon Barat (200 guests)
- Community Event at Balai Warga Cirebon Timur (150 attendees)
- Outdoor Wedding at Pendopo Plered (300 guests)
- Mosque Event at Masjid Agung Cirebon (400 people)
- Business Expo at Mall Cirebon (all-day event)
Testing Equipment Used:
- Sound Level Meter (measure noise in decibels)
- Anemometer (measure wind speed at different distances)
- Power Meter (measure actual electricity consumption)
- Thermometer (temperature difference with/without fans)
- Timers (delivery time, setup time)
What We Measured:
- Performance: Wind strength at different distances
- Noise: How loud during speeches/ceremonies
- Efficiency: Electricity cost for 12-hour event
- Service: Response time, delivery reliability
- Hidden Costs: Deposits, delivery fees, setup charges
Transparency Note:
We paid full price for all rentals. No providers knew they were being tested. All photos are from actual Cirebon events with permission.
