Ceiling extractor fan - bypass timer

[gaz1234]

Hi
I have a slowly dying vortice 10206 timer version (kr t) that I thought was the standard non timer version 10205 which I ordered and tried fitting today.
before returning and ordering the same one. Is there a way to getting the standard one to work in place of the timer? The timer one I have literally stops as soon as I turn the light off.
Cheers

A timer fan needs a permanent feed and a switched live from the lights. This lets it overrun for a time when the light switches off. A normal fan doesn't have a timer, therefore it will go off when the supply to it dies e.g. light switched off.

What you're saying is a bit confusing - did your old fan stop when you turn the light off as well?

Confusing post, you were sent - and returned a standard fan- and want to know you could wire it up in place if the timer? Answer is yes but you will have a spare permanent feed to disconnect.
