Powering a HPE BladeSystem c7000 Fan ~ 70 Watts

[@xa-xii4865]

Believe it or not, these exact server fans are advertised as ELECTRIC TURBOCHARGERS on Amazon and eBay! And not too expensive either.

Hi.. There are 6 pins on the socket, left-right: V-, pin2, pin3, pin4, pin5, V+. I have information about pin2 & pin3 are for low & high speed function. Low speed short/contact pin2+pin3, high speed not short/contact. I dont have original driver board. Have you approved/tried this information about pin2 & pin3? Thank you.

Great video. Is all the input 12v? So also the green and yellow? Why is it not putting out the full 16.5A at 12v you think? Some kind of RPM limitation? If you give it more back pressure perhaps it will consume more power?

[@PlaywithJunk]

No it is simply not running at full speed. An sdditional jumper must be soldered in to engage full power. see here; kzbin.info/www/bejne/gYGvfZ1riLysmKM

Hey, you're showing two completely different cable setups. The one at the beginning, and the 'detailed' one near the end. I've tried both and failed, can you explain it more clearly in text? if you're still alive.

Looks like you can replace the bad controller with a R/C ESC.

U mnie też 4,5A, dlaczego nie 16A?

[@demkolem7594]

For me also 4.5A, why not 16A?

Зачем над "дедушкой" издеваетесь? Подключите нормально и будет он вам дуть на полные 200Вт... При 12в ток потребления должен быть 16.5-17А
