it is a 12 volt fan so you can get a 12 volt wall adapter or use a computer power supply. You might also look into 120 volt fans, the you can just wire a lamp cord to it and plug it into the wall.

Alot of ways,but the best way is to dig up an old pc power supply then the circuit is protected and the unit will stay cool,the connectors on the pc power supply are marked + and - The large connectors for the hard drive and cdrom are the 12 volt connectors.If you hook them wrong the fan will blow backwards,switch them and youll be fine.Any more questions pm me HYDRO:weed:

Here is the link to the 120 volt fans

120v AC Fans

Link for power cord to use with them, you will have to strip the cable and solder or use wire nuts to connect to the fan.

Ultra Products 1-to-2 Power Cord SJT Splitter

Here is a link for a 12 volt supply to use the first you were talking about. You'll still have to strip the cable to connect it.

That DIY thread sums it up and gives pictures. The other way is just to get 120 volt fan and wire a lamp cord up like you would with the wall adapter so you wouldn't need wall adapter but if you don't like playing with that kind of voltage it's understandable.

That's cool, the same thing I was talking about only they've done all the work for you and the finished product looks better.

Maybe even get a couple of solar panels and get enough electric from the lights to run it.
