00:00If you're ceiling fans humming but not spinning, there's a good chance you just need to swap the
00:04starting capacitor and honestly, you don't need to spend much to fix it. I went through the
00:09listings and found some solid deals on the top 5 starting capacitor sets for fan motors,
00:13so let's run through them. First up is the CBB61 450V capacitor set, and what I like here is the
00:20range, you get options from 1uF all the way to 10, covering pretty much any fan motor you'll
00:25come across. It's just $3.07, it's sold nearly 4,800 times, and it sits at a 4.9 rating,
00:33so it's clearly doing the job for a lot of people. Next is another CBB61 set at $5.18,
00:40a little pricier, but it throws in finer values like 0.8, 1.8, 3.5, and 4.5 microfarads,
00:47which matters if your fan calls for an exact spec. With over 4,400 sold and a 4.7 rating,
00:54it's a reliable pick for anyone who wants more precise sizing options.
00:58Then there's the budget champ, the CBB61 range hood and fan capacitor at just $0.32.
01:05Yeah, you read that right. It covers a huge spread of values, from 1 up to 20 microfarads,
01:11and with almost 4,400 sold and a 4.8 rating, it's an easy call if you want a cheap
01:16spare or two on hand.
01:18Coming in at $2.98 is this single 450V, 1.2 microfarad CBB61 capacitor, perfect if you already
01:26know exactly what your motor needs and don't want a whole assortment. It's got over 4,300 sales and
01:32a 4.8 rating, so it's a simple, no-fuss replacement that people seem happy with.
01:37Last one is the rectangular CBB61 ceiling fan capacitor at $3.48, sized from 1 to 10 microfarads.
01:46The rectangle shape fits a lot of ceiling fan housings better than the round ones,
01:50and with 4,275 sold and a 4.9 rating, it's a top-rated pick to round out the list.
01:56So those are my top 5 starting capacitor sets for fan motors, all the links are in the description
