    Re: Incubator Fan

    What are you using for the power supply?
    Just curious, I have a whole box full of PC fans from old scrap computers...I work at a computer company.
    I tried it with computer fans but could not get any of the 8 or 9 old phone adapters ect. to work because of the AC/DC conversion.

    So I ended up buying 120v Fans from RadioShack that I could just wire a normal plug on the end. They work great

    you can buy those universal adapters and clip the ends off and splice them to the fans and sice you are able to adjust the voltage on them you can run more then 1 fan with it ..
    I love it when people tell me, "You should think before you speak!" I'm like, "I did. It's what I think and I really don't give a crap what other people think."

    those converters are every where...you just have to think out side the box..I got mine for 2.00 from a pawn store its an old plug in for a protable CD player. Match the fans spec's perfect.
