For solar panel operation, you may want to consider a brushless DC fan (computer "muffin" type cooling fan). They are very efficient, ball bearing construction, extremely quiet and lasts a long time. You can get them cheap on eBay. I think because they are brushless, they most likely generate very little RFI. They are not reversible, unlike PM DC motors.
