Very interesting. I was really surprised at the noise ranking. The Kiss is very quiet compared to others I've experienced.

The difference in total amps was not much. I would think that on a different time period of wind speeds the ranking would be different.

I was very interested in the Air Breeze when my old Kiss went out but for ease of replacement and a great discount from Doug in Trinidad it was a no brainer,,,, replace with another Kiss.

I spent some time on a boat with a Superwind and it was incredible. I probably would have gone with that one if it wasn't so damn expensive.

Solely from that report I'd get them to replace your blades under warranty.
