Fans

[JimD]

With the warmer weather right around the corner, dont forget to clean your fans, especially the clip on ones if you use them. Recently I have been noticing a gradual increase in tank temp and sure enough, all the fans were so clogged up they werent operating at peak performence. Took them apart and gave them a good cleaning and bang, temps were back to normal again... Just something to keep in mind...

Those are good tips tough. Blow em out with a air compressor or a leaf blower and they will work a lot better.

Stop! You're going to give BB ideas.....


If you take a CPU fan, and strip an old usb cable, you can take the red and black and use them to power a fan. If you buy a usb hub, you could run four (possibly more) off the hub's power, leaving you excess space for plugs, since you would only be using one plug to power the usb hub! I want to make a prototype, but I have 0 problems with heat.
