Types of fans used in cabinet/closet grows?

I have a couple old PC fans that i would like to use, i hooked one up to an old cell phone charger but it goes really slow, have a couple more, any ideas on how i can power these?? or any good easy to use kinds of fans for cabinet grows?

dude, don't go with those, I'd look into a water cooling system, filter in , then out again, course, if it's a stealth system, that may not work
Hope this helps *never personally used water cooling * but it's what they are starting to use for home PCs, so why the hell not?
it's way more efficient.

yo i have the same setup as you and i use one with a cell phone charger and its soso maybe try to chargers on one fan haven't tried it but may work, but what i use to control more than one fan at once is a model train controller it is awesome i have 3 fans on it and the are strong as shit, i happened to have 2 lying around but i only use one of them but i just looked them up and they are apparently expensive as shit but if you could find a used one you might get a deal, hit the hobby shops

you can use anything that has a dc out put, anything that charges. look for something that has a high output like maybe an old game console plugin just looked at my sega and it has a .85amp output where a cell phone is .15a laptop charger is 3.5a that would put some shit behing those fans, an old computer supply or even an old laser printer power supply with mother board and shit(i actually had that on one of my real small seedling boxes,fucking ghetttto) ummm the list goes on, thoses are just thing in my room anything that has a little power pack thing just look on it and it will give you an output you want higher amps, the voltage doesnt really matter much look around you will be surprised as to what you find

Most fans have the recommended Amp's and Voltage on them. Computer fans from memory are 200-300mA and running at 12 volt i think. Its best to get something slightly smaller than bigger because you will most likely burn out the fan from long use with to much power running into it. Most phone chargers are only 3-8 volts at around 150-300mA.

get an oscillating fan, the plants like a nice breeze

Thanks, i might try to salvation army some old cell phone chargers or something then, i tried hooking 3 up to an old laptop charger...pretty sure there was too much amperage, started to smell smoke so unhooked that stat.

im using 2 pc fans which are ok for my space, 1 is on an 8volt mobile (cell) charger and the others on a 12volt charger, both run at diff speeds. the 12v 1 is alot more noisy but its not an issue for me. just try a few different ones untill you get one that suits your needs and space.

hustla

Just look at the wall charger they say what type of volt / amp they put out just try to get as close to 12 as possible.
