Hey, ok ive been trying to find good instructions on installing these 'muffin' fans <---> http://cgi.ebay.com/2-SMALL-12V-24V-DC-FAN-MUFFIN-FANS-USED-TESTED-SUNON_W0QQitemZ9741969462QQcategoryZ4671QQssPageNa meZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem <---> But i cant really find any crystal-clear instructions. Ill try to attach the picture of what i think you do, however i highly doubt that im right. So i guess im just looking for some peeps that know about this and who got some links/know if im doin this shit right.
Thanks

p.s. If my picture is right that means you can hook 3 fans to 1 12v DC adaptor. just thought id clarify that :rasta:

SHIT, it exceeds forum limits.. well it was a great drawing, It had 3 FANS each with a RED and BLACK WIRE- the DC ADAPTOR was stripped revealing the red/black WIRES under the main WIRE insulation sheathing. Well each of the ends of the fans' WIRES were stripped, Thens all 3 of the RED WIRES were soldered/twisted together, as were the black WIRES. Then the 3 soldered/twisted RED WIRES were attached to the RED WIRE in the 12V DC ADAPTOR, AS WERE THE BLACKS, then the DC ADAPTOR was plugged into the wall. Is this right???

Yeah! That sounds right! However,there is a 120 volt which would be the way to go.it's on ebay,12 inch muffin fan.In the hydroponics and seed starting section.Check it out.Hell check it all out! Lot of things to be put to good use by the novice or the pro!
