    yeah wrap it up with insulating tape but those fans have 3 wires the yellow wire is for revs per minute (rpm) which is used inside the pc to control the fan speeds so if you are gonna wire this baby up to a 12v dc adapter pnly use the red and black wires
    on the adapter you will see that the 2 wires are black but one of them will have markings on it which will be lil white lines this is the wire you will wire to the red wire on the fans and then you will be ok
    let us know how it goes m8
    hope this helps cheers

    all the fan does is strengthen the stem of the plant and help airflow around ya room and plants i have mine on a timer with my lights so they come on automatically they are a must really with the stem beeing stregthend this means it will help ya plant support the wieght of the bud once it starts flowering

    Small grower question

    If it didnt work with a 18v, what would make it work with a 12v, i just dont wanna waste another DC adapter, i got all the wiring down, its kinda common sense to me, i was thinking i only need 2 of these fans, one for intake and one for exhaust., if i did use 2, would i only need one adapter?

    you could wire all 3 to it if ya really wanted m8 i have 3 fans running on my adapter ill post a pic, i made a fan tube with 2 fans bolted on top of each other and attached to one end of a speaker porthole so i can direct the air better
    tell me what ya think

    Small grower question

    im not too sure then unless ya can get a dc adapter that has difrent voltage settings on it that would maybe work
    if not i would get some difrent fans from a pc shop m8
    80mm fans are quite cheap
    cheers hope this helps my freind
