Do wood burner fans work.

Wood burning stoves have become trendy. When a valiant stove fan is placed on a working wood burning stove heat is conducted from the surface of the stove travelling up from the aluminium base of the fan to the underside of the peltier device. You don t need to connect to the electric power or buy batteries. The heat differential between the base of the unit and the top of the fan drives the motor which in turn drives the blades around while the cooling fans at the rear help keep the top of the fan at a much lower temperature making sure the fan spins maintains constant revolutions.

You know the handy fan that sits on your stove top or attaches to the flue pipe or even to the stove door and promises to distribute the hot air around your room and saves you money. However you may still be on the fence about whether they genuinely work or if its just another one of those gimmicky gadgets that are a way of helping you spend your hard earned cash.
