Smart Start Fan: Soft-Start Tech Built for High-Performance Cooling

Maradyne’s Smart Start Fans are engineered for high-demand performance applications where reliability, longevity, and clean electrical performance matter. Whether you’re building for extreme off-road, drift, strip or street, Smart Start’s integrated soft-start technology eliminates the damaging amp spike on startup, dramatically reducing strain on relays, fuses and other electrical components.

Smart Start isn’t just another electric fan—it’s the only product of its kind on the market. It’s a brushed fan with advanced, brushless-style benefits: zero amp spike, extended life, and a sealed design that protects against dirt, moisture, and debris. The result? Smoother operation, less wear on the system, and dependable airflow exactly when it’s needed most. And we back every unit with a 3-year warranty—coverage rarely offered in this category.

Proven in some of the harshest environments in motorsports, Smart Start has performed flawlessly in off-road desert racing, rock crawling, drag racing and other high-performance applications. From scorching asphalt to deep mud and water crossings, these fans have been battle-tested in the field—the same environments your customers push their builds through.

For speed shops and distributors, that means confidence. Confidence that when a customer needs a cooling solution for a high-horsepower build, a competition vehicle or a hard-working off-road rig, you’re offering a product that’s already been proven under pressure. And while comparable high-end cooling technology like brushless can carry a premium price tag, Smart Start delivers innovation, durability and performance at a more accessible cost.

Smart Start Fans are available in single shrouded 12, dual shrouded 12, and 16 low-profile configurations. Each features our Long-Life motor, durable glass-filled nylon blades and true-rated CFM output—with performance specs you can trust.

It’s worth noting that Smart Start isn’t an outlier—every fan in our product line is built to the same rigorous standards as the highest-tier cooling products in the industry. Maradyne products are designed for shops that demand reliability, tested for performance in real-world conditions, and priced to deliver true value to both you and your customers.

By stocking Maradyne, you’re not just carrying a brand—you’re providing your customers with proven, high-quality cooling solutions that perform when it matters most.
