I was wondering how many Gentle Typhoon 1850 fans could be supported on 1 Lamptron FC-2 Channel?

The lamptron FC-2 has 45W per channel. At 12v, the GT's draw about 0.06A (if I remember correctly). However, at startup, they draw up to 0.36A. So that should be used for calculations. 0.36x12 = 4.32W. That means you can hook up about 10 GT's per channel. Although I would recommend not going above 8, just for safety ;).

But fire is so nice! Look closely at my Avatar. It wasn't mine at least.

So wait, is that what happens when you mix a lot of coke with a lot of mentos :eek:?!
Lawl, how'd you create those lovely burn marks? I'd like some advice how to blow up an old pc most efficiently (by means of overclocking of course) ;).
