igben2k I'll be checking out the auto parts store over the next few days, to see if I can trade my blower for something smaller.
Good idea.

If you can't find something, check out the marine places, especially the places that do bigger boats. You pay extra for anything that says 'marine', but the quality tends to be good. What I was specifically thinking of is that there are Coast Guard regs requiring forced air ventilation of engine and fuel storage spaces that require some pretty strong blowers, most of which are 12VDC, and are designed to be mounted to deck plates and the like. It seems possible to me that they might have something in a compact package with more suitable mounts than a car would have.

Those pointers just got me to the front page of each site, do you have something that might be a bit more specific?
