Lol, teddy bears. Have you had any problems/minor failures in the time using it? Should I be worried about power matching and overheat if it's connected with USB?
@frostedlambs yh if u take the fan of the heat sink cos the fan is on the heat sink and the heat sink is on the cpu so if u dont have another fan for the cpu your computer wont start so make sure u have a spare to put in ok :)
i have 2 extra fans + 3 more from my old pc so ima try this with 2 fans and ima tape them to the back of the ps3 lol bcz i dont want the yellow light of death
ok what i did i maid 2 kinds 1 i maid with just a old ps2 fan and went to the doller store and bought a usb cable the other from a xbox 360 charger cable for a headset and a ( SMALL) fan from a computer and i have them both hooked better results
wow ino their are probably alot of sam obrien but their are two of them in my school and judging by the xx in the name- it might be one of the ones ino, i might ask them but if it isnt then i'll look like a retard "sam, did u ask a guy on youtube to do a video on how to make a usb fan?" "no wtf"
if you have ever connected wires before you should know you dont need to solder them together for it to work most of the time. if you interlace the wires the right way then tape them with electrical tape
my dad bought once a cooler for his desktop but it was the wrong size so i made myself a usb cooler but it requires 12 volts and usb gives a maximum of 5 so it spins but doesnt really cool
Just buy the fan online, theyre not that expensive, just most people have atleast 1 old computer laying around so thats why I used that as an example.
i had a broken fat ps2.took that apart, got the fan,took a ipod cable(dont have an ipod anymore)i just twisted them together(black and red sepratly)plugged em in to my 360 and it works great!!
Hi I'm going to show you how to make a USB fan! Just kidding, I'm going to recall a past experience to the best of my knowledge, and show you an already made example. If anything I said is wrong, let me know, because I don't really remember, and uh, yeah. Glad I could be of assistance!
I'm not sure. Maybe try another USB wire? There should be copper wire surrounding the bundle of the other wires inside. It couldn't work with just copper wire inside so I'm not sure what you used.
No, it hasn't done anything to anything I've used it with. There are lots of people who have used this method, but if you are still unsure, try plugging it into an old computer first or something else that can power a usb.
dymn i connected my ceiling fan to the usb and its blowing hell out of my gf's skirt thanx for the video

@XxgodismyrockxX go to a computer repair place ask if they have a old fan lying around and ask to buy it from them for like 2 dollars or 3 dollars
