Another Cheap Air Condition
When you have your PC in the Attic, it can be really hot in the room.
Inspired from the projects here, i have build my own easy solution for 1-3h cool air.
Parts:
2 Fans http://www.reichelt.de/?ARTICLE=110418 ( works also with 5 Volt ).
IsoBox: My is from this part: http://www.reichelt.de/?ARTICLE=164898
Cut out the overlap parts, but do not cut through, and watch your fingers :)
Cut 1-2 slots for the fresh air to come out.
At the top, cut out the holes for the fans, and glue them in. Hint: The fans should suck the warm air.
I had a USB Cable for Power: http://www.reichelt.de/?ARTICLE=164898 Before you connect the cables together watch the poles!
Cuts and Glues
Make the slots not to big, and look up, so that the glue not blob on the propeller from the fans.
bring the cables together and....
Put Something Cool In
I have for testing some cool packs from the freezer. Put them in the box.
you can run with this both fans over an USB Port, because they use together a power of 120 mA
For turn off and on, i have this little helper http://www.reichelt.de/?ARTICLE=164898 Sure it works also another way, but it was there. :)
For hold the cap down i use a band from a old headlight.
So thats all.
Keep cool! :)
