I didn't forget ;)

I was trying to give a basic example to answer the question about how much juice/runtime a fan uses. I wasn't even thinking of BG's converter... and I was thinking 4s too.

Assuming the fan pulls x current, without regard to the input voltage from the battery. Higher voltage would result in higher amp draw from the fan anyway, which changes the #'s.

So maybe we can go back and figure in the losses from the converter and the draw from a given fan @ 12volts... add them and see what the total effect is.
