A small, flat fan often used in applications to cool a computer and such.
Low voltage, built into a cage, very available and quiet. The stock westy
came with a very "non-muffin" fan as there was no shroud to actually direct
the airflow, just a fan blade to push air into space. I got a GoWesty
fridge fan upgrade that is a very nice aluminum bodied muffin fan, and it
is wonderful. Nothing like what came on the fridge originally though.
