ya, the all fans end up being variable speed thing bothers me too. the site isn't very well put together so a call would be in order to answer a lot of these questions. i don't know why you wouldn't set the fan "on" point just above what ever max temp your willing to see, so they have a chance to turn off, once the car is in your happy zone. since this takes the temp at a very different location form where most people install the temp gauge, maybe that accounts for the thinking... i don't know...
