Not necessarily a disadvantage! We have a decent sized window in our bathroom/toilet. The fans PIR is triggered every time someone walks in the room, and it then runs for 20 minutes. The 20 minute run, after someone has had a bath. or shower - gets most of the airborne moisture out, but some...

Reading the data, this tri boom.

That is what I said, but the OP, has since confirmed it is the power cable which is damaged.
