TK6294 Posted August 11, 2009 Report Share Posted August 11, 2009 (edited) I have four of these fans wired in my helmet. They are quiet and really blow well. ------------- I have wired up systems for two other troopers. I put two at the frown, one at the chin, and one at the top. Basically, two fans suck air in and two fans blow air out. Works so well that i put my helmet on to cool off...

I would really love to see it as a reference. Edited March 24, 2022 by gmrhodes13 link removed no longer working Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Contact me via email if you are interested. We can work something out.
