Minka Aire Artemis LED 58" ceiling fan in copper bronze, shown using the proper Aire Control system. This is another fan that I found in the trash during Cleanup Week 2025. First and foremost, you'll notice some incorrect parts. All mounting and decorative hardware above the motor was, of course, entirely missing. I dug through their entire pile of junk on the curb looking, and I even went back after dark to dig through their actual trash can with no luck. Assuming it had been thrown out separately long beforehand. Enter: one of those no-name 5 blade Kichler things from Lowe's. I found it near the end of Cleanup Week, missing glass and waterlogged from rain. Since it was also under the recall period, I simply parted that one out, so some of the parts worked fairly well to pair with this Artemis and were similar in finish to what it would've had originally. Eventually I may try to do something different, get some proper parts and paint them or something, but this works fine aside from the Kichler logo being stamped into the canopy, and was minimal effort while being short on time trying to process all this new inventory. Of course no control system present at all, so I stole it from my Como for this demo since it'll be coming down off display. I like the Artemis fine, but I'm not really that big on it unless it's one of the cooler, less seen finish options. Red, clear/chrome, and this copper bronze are probably my top options (I like translucent blades), so I'd say I lucked out pretty good finding one I don't mind having, and being discontinued now makes it even better. Cleaned up fairly well, there are a few significant scuffs on a couple blades but they don't show much. Runs pretty much just fine, once again I thought maybe the light would be dead or malfunctioning, but it's all good. Just glad everything panned out well to get this one functional in a quick manner, as I don't like sitting on too many project items.
