Re: Tip & trick for noisy fan.

yes .... i mean 120mm fan from a pc
You think that 's very big ???
If I put it on the upper side of box covered with something ...
or i can buy a new smaller fan (60-80mm) and to put it inside the box.
These fans aren't 12v ???
Can i take this voltage from inside the box or can i use an extrenal adaptor?

You can use a Fan like this with an external DC Adabter. Place it on top of the Dreambox.

If you're following this tutorial a 120mm fan will work. -http://www.*******.com/watch?v=2kF6OlECf5M
I used an 80mm fan and just sat the box on top of it with the fan blowing air upwards.

Thanks guys for your advices!
I will buy a new 80mm pc fan and i will use an old external DC Adabter 12v.
I am thinking to use a Switch over the fan to avoid woriking constantly.

But i want something like a cover for the fan over the box.

xm...I will take a look at my old pc parts..... I think i will find something

Perfect size for the box to sit on.
Whisper quiet whilst profiding plenty of airflow.
