Cool Fan Mod

[brutal]

well i have 4 non-major fan name fans that ive removed and they have a plastic locking ring and they are sleeve bearing. because of that im not sure how to get it to work without having a spring to sodier to.  gimme a hint of if you have a close up pic.  I wanna do it to a 92mm fan once i get the details worked out

I am running in to the same problem as you brutal, my fans are designed in a similar way, not to mention they are all metal as well so I have that as an added problem to hack at.

[brutal]

i should say i have 4 no-name fans to hack up first before i try it on my panaflo and sunons.  im going to do this mod on a panaflo 92mm U1a when i get it perfected

[courtfool]

well as everyone says before cant wait to see pics and tutorials...

[brutal]

pictures you've seen on other sites and this mod is far down the list of things i want to do, so don't expect any pictures from me on this topic for a while. my ram air (cold air) setup is next

This is al nice, but the thing is that not every fan is suitable for thiz. Al LED haz a time to shut down. Every time you kill the power to the led, it burns like 3 miliseconds. When you drill a hole at the side of the fan, and make to pins, 1 for the + and 1 for the -, then you can make 2 coils, those will every second hit those pins, on a 3000 rpm fan, (3000:60) 50 times per second. That will make the led burn long enough to keep the whole round full.

no kidding you have been thinking  when i get around to doing this, im going to do the wiring on the low pressue side  to reduce the possibility of additional turbalence. how large would the coils be and what advantage would this have over having them wired and on all the time?

[PLeX]

What do you mean with tha coils? I don't understand. But I do know, that when you wire um like I said, that the led burns continuasli (huh? dutch problem). Already tryed it out.

[courtfool]

hey plexi! I would love to see some kind of tutorial on that.

Hmmm. I think i'm gonna draw something for you guyz in PAINT
