Howto by BloweFish @ 2003-03-08

Want to have some nice light fans but you\'ve allready bought some enermax fans? Or you think that these ledfans are too expensive or their performance sucks? I show you how to build one yourself!

ON! Party!

You’ll have to cut the wires of the fan (NOT THE RPMCONTROL WIRE).

Now connect the positive wire (the wire connected to the resistor) to the positive wire of your fan ( the orange wire) and connect the negative wire to the negative wire of your fan ( the black wire).Then you'll have to connect the wires of the fan to the wires of your 3pin connector.

You’ve just created a red light fan for 11€. And it has adjustable RPM + more performance then other pre-made light fans.

I hope you found this howto usefull and that your final "product" looks just as nice as mine!

I am more then happy to answer to comments and questions in this thread (link) @ our forums
