the sleeveing or the Fans? I dont know how but these things eat to many amps 0-o

they run fine on a indavendaul fan mate nice cool and quite it better to run a 40$ rig that lasts 2+ years than to replace fans every 6 months.......

2.get a fan controler box that dose 4+ fans for 25

3.or get 2 12 to 10volt adapters

*sharpens AXE*

The computer is playing with me....it seems I didn't wire it on the 5volt I put it on the 12volt line no wonder it tried to burn out stuff...at this point and time I don't know if the AXE is for me or the PC...but I will keep it handy just it case one of us goes astray...

Why exactly would you be worried about batteries on a flashlight that works on the Faraday principle?

becuse its a knock off of a knock of whose parts might not last 12-22 months.

and theres 2 things that will most likely fail the charge system doubtful but possible and the little diode battery thingy
