Our new 18 has these fitted, have to change the bulb to LED though. The fan is two speed and is fairly quiet when on low.

Found a reference online:
Command 2-speed fan/bunk reading light
$52.79 in the US. Can't see an Australian site selling them but I'm sure someone will be.

They are in the new Jayco accessories brochure from Brisbane Camperland for $47.95 each. There online shop will be up and running in July.
They did not come standard in ours which we took delivery of in March

The only reason I was asking the question was that when we ordered we asked about what upgrades were inline for the 2012 Expandas this was about the only thing that was not mentioned.
Randl007 I would be asking why they weren't included as the rep said to us that they are on the 2012 models.

I saw them at the Jayco accessories shop at the factory last month and thought they'd be a good idea. There was no price marked though
We are due to pick up our 17.56.1 OB at the weekend, we were told that they were not available. Irrelevant really as I have had these light/fans in our Swan for the last 5 years.I had to have them shipped across from USA though as I could not source them here. They cost around $100 inc postage for a pair , but this was 5 years ago! I have seen them here a few years ago but was told that you had to buy the camper van to receive them!!
As I said earlier we picked up our Expanda two weeks ago and they were included. They also had them on the shelf at Jayco Newcastle for $48 each.
On the high speed it is a bit noisy and its probably at this speed that you need it to give you any real cooling relief.
I must be the odd one out??
I saw these lights in the new expanda's at the Brisbane show and I personally dont like them ,they seem to be noisy and most of the light is goes horizontal to the bed. I hope I dont get them in my new outback due in September. If I get them I will be trying to get the old style ones from the dealer (Like I have in my camper now)

They are definitely noisy on the high speed, we never used our lights in the swan so not sure if these will get a run or not.
I actually don't mind noisy fans as they cut out the noise from surrounding conversations, televisions etc. I see what you mean about the light direction though, maybe you could hang a small battery light off it if you need one to supplement the overhead. Does this combo mean the overhead light at the inner end of the bed area is no longer there?
