Title: Cooling fan recommendation
Post by: Mannix2 on January 05, 2003, 09:29:34 pm

Well the cooling fan I bought from Happs 2 years ago just fell from the top of the cab.  Plastic fan spun right off the spindle.  Any recommendations on a replacement?

Is it 110 or 12v? For 12v you can use a inexpensive  case fan.

Radio Shack carries AC cooling fans.

3" fan, part # 273-242
4" fan, part # 273-241

If you have trouble finding a suitable AC fan, try a DC one.  They tend to be quite a bit quieter than AC ones, and cause less noise interference with other components.
