Optimal Fan Positioning

[Ph1l2007]

Hi Guys,

 

I am working on planning out the interior of my helmet, and I just had a simple question about fans. Where do you believe the best place to install them is for the most effective cooling? I have browsed the forums and have seen people do a number of things such as install the fans right on the frown so they take in air from the outside. I have also seen people put fans at the chin, and also inside the ring that goes around the bottom of the helmet.

 

But yeah, I would appreciate people's 2 cents. Pictures would be helpful as well.

 

Thanks,

 

Phil

I like at least one fan on the cut-out frown.

I agree with Craig....that's how i have my helmet set up.

Yep - right over the mouth so they can suck in fresh air and blow it right at your nose and mouth:

I tried putting them at the vents as suggested above, and I don't know if its the size of my melon or the fact that I have facial hair, but the fans couldn't spin because my face was in the way. I found that down near the chin was a bit better, but not alot of airflow. Always curious if anyone places fans on the top of the bucket facing down.
