Frying a Computer Cooling Fan

I wonder what will happen if you hook a heavy-duty rectifier diode in series with the fan so that it gets loads of DC the right way...would it spin itself to death?

thi is ubber dumb, mains is AC, the fan works with DC, it didn't burn because of the high voltage (probably), it burned becuase of the reversed polarity, as happens when you plug a 12V fan to a 12V battery with the polarity reversed.
I took one of those to 40V and didn't explode, try adding a rectified before de fan with a cap that can hold 200V and you would get about 180V DC try with that

Wow all of that amperage must have fried the coil!

i see from you vids you like pluging stuff into walls lol

i hav a delta fan it actually kicks ass

Delta fan

god i didn't do this but i did put it to 15V's all it will do is not spin and smell terrible until you spin the blades and then it will move

Awesome :O
