ok. so I have a PC fan and a plug. and I want to WIRE them together.
so I can put it in my rubber made growbox.
I tryed once but I got a little shock.
so I just had to put a regular fan in front of the box to keep the air moveing.
anyway I would be very greatful if someone could help me with wireing them up.
thanks.:D
Is the fan 120 volts?
How many wires are coming from the fan?
ok this is what I have.
on the fan it says. DC12V. o.13A 1.56w
Lol....
The fan is DC, the wall is AC. I dunno how much basic electricity you've learned, either from school, or common sense but these two can not be hardwired together and work.
Get a 12v AC/DC universal adapter. Cut off the wire from the adapter that is supposed to be plugged into a phone, cd, w/e and then plug it into the fan.
haha u have to go and get a 12v phone or watever charger and try wireing the red to black and itll work but yea you got shocked because you cant wire them togather im sure it sparked and watever...yea it wont work soo dont try it...
ok. thanks for the info.
yea goto wallmart and for about 3 dollars you can get a little metal fan...look in the back by the garden supplies and there are plenty types...also i suggest cutting a hole in the box and put the fan pointing in a hole for vent which is important....
also you suggest cutting a hole in the box and put the fan pointing in a hole for vent which is important.
thats what I was planing on doing.
and thanks for the info.
yea i have a fan pointing in my to strengthen my plants stalks...make the more sturdy and cool my lights kuzz i have 15 cfls ina small box...thats why i suggest just cutting a hole big enough for the fan face to fit in and then you can put it in the hole and cool everything at once]...then a hole for vent like try 1 3'' or 2 2'' i just have a big like vagina shaped 1 kuzz mine is a tent ...
