Where to get a blower?
Just as the title says. Looking for something to use in my own custom build case. Thinking of a car blower but unsure of the start up voltage/amps on these things. But that would fit the bill.

what size do you want? I have one that's 10"x6"x7" and pushes 700CFM in free flow |
^^ How much for something like that? I'm thinking of upgradeing the circulation in my house.

LOL That's some serious air flow. I was thinking of something like this.
http://www.surpluscenter.com/item.as...tname=electric If I can put it on a dimmer switch or something would be great. More air flow the better though if I can still adjust the speed of it. |
mine's 48VDC and runs all the way down to 12v
I'm thinking about selling it |

Just curious. I'm not particulary interested in buying it from you. Though you got a link to the manf. and model you have? Thanks, DrCR __________ |

still makes some niuse at 12v, mostly the rushing of air-if I cap off the ends, it's pretty quiet I'd say about like a single 80mm Panaflo H, but a lower frequency |
Cool, thanks!

Anyone seeing a problem running this off an extra psu?
http://www.surpluscenter.com/item.as...tname=electric Someone got the lot on the last one. No more left. :( What about running a 110volt on a dimmer switch? Is that possible and safe? |

THis is the one I originally wanted. Guess I'm to slow trying to figure out how to do this the best way before I spend the cash. |

Don't some dimmers use the frequency? I remember using one of those flourescent bulbs in a dimmer and it wouldnt work because the dimmer itself would just flicker the thing off and on. The more you turned the dimmer up the faster that blink would go. Dc blower that I looked at requires 9amps which might kill a psu over time. The 110 volt I could wire up along with my pump with ease. |

my 450w Powersupply puts out 22 Amps on the 12v line... should handle the 9 amps fine i would think my 2¢ edit Fixed bad TAGS "QUOTE" |

myself i'm going to put my Fans and water pumps in an exteral box... so i will have a dedicated powersupply for it... only thing i'm worried about is that there will be no load on the 5 volt line... I have read somewhere that this can cause the 12v line to drop? duno for shure.. guess i'll find out... |

how many watts would i need on the 5 volt line?
would that be powersupply dependent question? or is it safe to say i would need X watts or X percentage of 12Volt power? |
Quote:
Your question is as good as mine. I used a small low powered flex psu for my fans so that small 5v fan did the trick for me. I never tried it on anything larger. |

Just FYI, but I've desided to go for 38mm thick AC axials instead. Seem to have the high pressue, low noise combination that I'm looking for, and for a given airflow they're quieter than a DC, for a given quietness they move more air.
http://forums.silentpcreview.com/viewtopic.php?t=16393 The AC aspect is perfect too as I'll be using an Iwaki MD-20Z in a quasi-external rad box anyway. DrCR ________ |

Say what?! What kind of speed controller is that?! DrCR ________ |
A very good one? I know I would love to have a controller that delivered 50% power with no voltage applied.
