Real simple find an old LCD monitor, tear it apart and take the power supply out. Find the molex connecter should say 12v dc. Splice to fans. Plug in.
works great real easy and better than using 12v phone chargers and full blown computer PS.
hope it helps,
thanks

Fudge up the pics.
That's really cool, its a simple solution to a problem I have always had. But I have a new problem, I need an old LCD.
Ive got a DC charger hooked up to one of those Nyko 360 intercoolers

I was using an older computer to run my fans and monitor rpms and temps but it took up to much space and i truely didnt need it.
just look at pawn shops or ask around, people tend to throw away older monitors, the main reason i rigged this up was to save space, also i could plug it directly into my light timer.Quote:
