  • OKAY...

    5V is the maximum output of USB port.

    So is it still enough for this kind of vent??

    I think that it will need a 12V output?

    Someone plz respond:D

  • @W1ld3g4m3r you can't use more than 5V from the usb. If you were to use a bigger fan, it could probably run but would be very very slow.

  • can that metal grill be taken off? What's its purpose?

  • @iCloudification yes it can be taken off, I just put it there.. its to cover the fan while its running.

  • Real easy, made it in about 3mins overall (cuz i had a couple of fans and an usb cable already ready for this) it is cool and works fine =)

  • @Lal017 thanks, im glad the tutorial helped :)

see all

  • I tried that, but i can't find a fan that runs on 5 Volts most of them are 12 V

  • plz help my fan has 3 wires blue,grey,and black so i cant splice it

  • i made one .. not very much air comin out haha

  • @Luda12Plyr

    using 2 usb-s would workd imo.

    Thats 5v+5v.

    Usually the normal pc vents use 12v voltage.

    So 10v woild be nice too.

  • @ForTehFallenDreams if it has red and black probably

  • @funyguy if you get wires and split the connection alothough you only get about 2.5v in each fan so best to use one with two different cables

  • i have red, blue and light brown wire

  • can you make one out of an ethernet cable?

    please respond it would hep greatly :}
