Wired up the fan to my test system's power supply. I made a quick video of the test, check it out. _________________________ To live is to let die

I had a heck of a time holding it, good thing I held it because if I was going to using something to hold it with, my luck it wouldn't hold and end up spinning and try to chop a body part off. Since the fan motor is so powerful I'm thinking to use it on a car mod i've been thinking about. A electric supercharger. All of the so called electric superchargers i've seen use a standard 80 or 120mm computer fan that blows at the most 78cfms. _________________________ To live is to let die
