I was thinking about installing a computer fan in my grow room and i was just wondering how would you connect the wiring to make the fan work, without plugging it into an actual computer (im crap at electrical stuff)

A computer fan is so small I doubt it would do any good. If you want ventilation get a bathroox exhaust from one of the big box hardware stores like Lowes or HD. If you need help wiring let me know.

Hey, luckily my computer is right next my cupboard, and i've hooked a computer fan up check out the pic..(seen on the right)I'm only using it for when they're small, I've got a 6" for when they're larger..
As for wiring it up, I couldnt imagine wiring it up to the mains as they're designed to run off a tiny amount of power..
