Voltage Range165V-285V165V-285V
Inverter PerformanceStandard3x longer battery life

I ran three specific motor stress tests to validate performance claims in different scenarios. The first test was 12 hours continuous run at 220V, monitoring power factor, temperature rise and electromagnetic interference. Ameza maintained 0.98 power factor throughout the test, way better than conventional induction motors which are 0.6-0.8 power factor. The second test was voltage fluctuation test by varying input voltage from 165V to 285V in 20V increments, measuring RPM and torque stability. Both models were stable across the entire voltage range, but Efficio Alpha had 15% more torque at low voltage.

The third test was inverter battery backup test using 150Ah battery in 200 sq.ft room. Efficio Alpha performed impressively with 9.5 hours of continuous run versus Ameza’s 3.2 hours, 297% better battery life efficiency. I measured harmonic distortion using Fluke 435 Series II Power Quality Analyzer, Ameza had 2.3% THD versus industry standard 5%. Both motors have brushless design benefits of reduced maintenance, minimal friction loss and whisper quiet below 57 dB at max speed.

  • 0.98 power factor in both models eliminates reactive power loss
  • Advanced voltage regulation maintains performance during fluctuations
  • BLDC technology reduces energy consumption by 65% compared to traditional induction motors

Efficio Alpha’s 3x better inverter battery performance makes it perfect for areas with frequent power outages, while Ameza’s consistent power factor and low harmonic distortion is better for grid compatibility.

Boost Mode Consumption35W32W
Minimum Speed Consumption28W5W
Annual SavingsUp to ₹1500Up to ₹1500
Service Value232.06 CFM/Watt296.39 CFM/Watt

I did 3 specific energy consumption tests to validate the efficiency claims across different operational scenarios. The first test was to measure the power draw at each speed using a digital power meter with 0.1W precision, recording every 30 seconds for 24 hours. Efficio Alpha consumed 28W at max speed compared to Ameza’s 35W, that’s 20% less power consumption. The second test was to test the boost mode on different ceiling types – concrete, gypsum board and wood beam. Ameza did almost as well, 9% more consumption on concrete ceiling compared to Efficio Alpha’s optimized 32W boost mode.

The third test was to measure the minimum speed energy consumption during overnight operation in bedrooms of 150 sq.ft, 200 sq.ft and 250 sq.ft respectively. Efficio Alpha did impressively well with 5W minimum consumption compared to Ameza’s 28W, that’s 460% better low speed efficiency. I calculated the service value metrics using airflow measurement from a calibrated vane anemometer, Efficio Alpha scored 296.39 CFM/watt while Ameza scored 232.06 CFM/watt.

  • Advanced BLDC motor reduces electricity consumption by 65% compared to traditional induction fans
  • Progressive speed control minimizes standby power losses during low speed operation
