More fans needed??

Post by Boundless »

Hey guys,

I am new to printing and using PLA with the layer fan and peek fan shrouds on my R Max2. I am trying to get a nice looking pyramid printed without melting columns and spiderwebs I think I need more cooling but alread have those 2 fans being used. Can I add a 3rd or 4th fan by wiring into the layer fan?

yup, you can wire additional fans, many people have.. some people have 3 layer fans even. So no problem with doing that

Thanks guanu,

So there is enough power running down those 26ga wires to run a couple more small fans?

I saw this fan shroud and thought it would do the trick. http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:43983

Now I just need to find the fans.
