Older AC motor, unfortunately. DC is the modern standard for fans with the following differences:

Power Draw: DC fans typically use up to 70% less electricity than their AC counterparts to move the exact same amount of air.

Noise: Because they use a permanent magnet and run on direct current, they eliminate the audible electrical buzz or hum common in AC motors.

Control: DC motors typically offer 6 speeds and instant reversing from the remote, whereas AC fans usually max out at 3 speeds and require flipping a physical switch on the motor housing.

I didn't know the difference between AC and DC motors until recently and was quite surprised at the magnitude of differences.

Are there any DC powered blower fans like this? I have not seen any myself.
