Fan wire thickness

[Mekrel]

What thickness wire for Yate Loon 120mm fans do I need? I believe it's 18 AWG?

I need to know so I can buy some and solder it to 3 fans so that the Sunbeam rheobus I bought can control the three case fans at the back

You sure you need to change the wire thickness because of using more fans?

People seem to have just spliced one stock loon wire and attached another two when doing it on radiators?

3 yate loons is less than 1 amp of total draw at 12v.

Use anything that looks similar in size to stock wire pretty much. 24 or 18 sounds like plenty to me.

i just bought a 3pin fan extension cable and cut one up.

if using 3 fans .300+.300+.300= .900~ =1 amp. yes move up to #21 awg. with 18 awg can handle 6 @ 300mA fans

I found an old Yate I've not sleeved, and really really straining my eyes it says 26 AWG. Thanks mate

I would use 18 gauge, that should be more than enough for any power wires in your PC, and saves you getting several sizes.
