Albus Underlight Smart BLDC+ Ceiling Fan

Description & Key Features

1. Motor Technology

   • It uses a Smart BLDC+ motor by Havells, which is more energy-efficient than traditional induction motors.

   • The catalog mentions that their BLDC+ fans can conserve energy significantly compared to non–star-rated conventional fans.

2. Sweep Size & Build

   • Sweep (blade span): 1320 mm for this model. 

   • Finish: Smoke Brown Wood look — gives a premium, elegant, slightly rustic / designer feel.

   • Number of blades: 3 (as per the product-page spec). 

3. Underlight (Lighting)

   • It has an integrated LED underlight.

   • The underlight supports colour options (CCT) and is dimmable, letting you adjust both brightness and mood.

4. Control Options

   • RF Remote: Comes with a remote that supports all-direction sensing.

   • Smart / IoT Control: It’s “Smart BLDC+”, meaning there is app / voice control functionality. According to the spec sheet, you can control it via Havells One app and voice assistants.

   • Modes: Likely to have different operation modes (such as Breeze and Sleep) plus a timer — this is common in the Albus / underlight BLDC fans.

5. Performance / Efficiency

   • Power consumption: ~40 W according to multiple spec-sheets / catalog.

   • Speed: ~270 RPM (as per NewJaspal listing).

   • Air delivery: ~245 m³/min.

   • Star rating: Some listings mention a 5-star energy rating.

6. Build & Durability

   • Motor winding: 100% copper winding for better efficiency and durability.

   • Blades: Premium ABS or MDF / wood-style blades (depending on variant) — helps in aesthetics.

   • Warranty: 2 years (on product / motor) as per some sellers.  

7. Design & Aesthetics

   • Designer look with wood-finish blades makes it suitable for modern / classic interiors.

   • Underlight offers functional + decorative lighting.

   • The smart control (app + voice) makes it a good fit for smart homes.

Pros (Benefits)

• Energy Efficient: BLDC+ motor means much lower electricity consumption compared to conventional fans.

• Dual Functionality: Fan + light in one — saves the need for a separate ceiling lamp in that spot.

• Smart Control: Can be controlled via remote, app, or voice — very convenient.

• Aesthetic Appeal: Wood finish blades + underlight make it stylish.

• Good Airflow: Despite efficient motor, it provides decent airflow (~245 m³/min).

• Low Noise: BLDC motors are generally quieter.

Cons / Considerations

• Higher Price: Because of smart features and BLDC+, the cost is higher than a basic ceiling fan.

• Installation: More complex due to integrated light + possibly smart wiring; may need a good electrician.

• Dependence on Remote / App: If remote or app control is the primary control, losing the remote might be inconvenient.

• Smart Features Use: To fully use smart control (app or voice), you need a good Wi-Fi setup / smart ecosystem.

• Light Output: The underlight is more for mood / ambient lighting — may not be as bright as a dedicated ceiling lamp for reading.

Use Cases / Best For

• Bedrooms, living rooms, or dining areas where both lighting and airflow are needed.

• Smart Homes: If you already use Alexa / Google Home / Havells One, this is a great pick.

• People who want stylish fans (designer wood finish) + energy saving.

• Homes where reducing electricity bills is a priority.
