Integy fan not acceptable - 06.29.2008, 07:01 PM

I've used 2 No!vak 25mm fans at 8+volts for no less than 30 hours, holding up fine. They will blow out a candle across a small room, they sound like little turbines too...

I got 2 of the Integy fans cuz they were cheap, thought it would be a good idea to run them closer to rated voltage. EHH!

Even running at 8.4 (their max rating) they move like NO air, and they stink like a fried pcb, the little motors are HOT, I'm wondering if they're already over rated at 7.2.

Anyway most of you probably know all these things are re-branded. You'll almost always see there is one sticker on top of another, peel the top one off and you'll see the Novaks are Young Lin brand, and the Integys are TOPCAD, with an address, topcad.com.hk- FWIW.

Run the Novak 25s at 7-8 volts and they work incredibly well.
