Alright, I decided to take the time tonight and do something about my fans inside to
circulate air. If you remember back a few posts ago I mentioned they stopped working.
So, I was looking around the house again, looking for a fan that wouldnt take much room
up. I had the one fan left from the 50 CFM bathroom exhaust fan but the fan blades that
I had in there before where a little too big for my liking and were blocking a little
bit of the light, not to mention they havn't been working for a couple days now. I took
apart an old plastic "squirrel cage" fan I baught at wally a few years ago, salvaged
the Fan Shaft, a couple coupler things and a SET of fan blades and swapped parts with
my 50 CFM fan.
Beginning of a burnt out thought.
I could be wrong on this but the thing giving the power to these fans are these
Transformers... I was thinking.. My bro use to take shit apart all the time and make
shockers out of these Transformers... and I remember a TV had the biggest transformer
cause that was the shocker that fuckin hurt the most. Just wondering.. if you had a
spare tv or big transformer if you hooked it up instead of the little one.. if it would
speed the fan up like crazy.. but if that thought is correct.. we could build a Cheap
DIY Exhaust Fan in some 6" Ducting Very easily and would be WAAYYY less expensive than
the marketed shit(vortec and those brands). Just a burnt out thought I had while
fucking with these fans... Any electrician / hobbiest have any thought on this before I
shock my self doing something stupid? Cause I have a spare TV i could tare apart. btw I
got shocked like a mother fucker tonight messing with these fans.. I forgot to turn the
switch to the fans off and I screwed the wire nut on while my other hand was on the
other wire... fuck that zapped the shit out of me. scared me- screamed like a girl...
luckily im the only one here.
Here is the pics of what the fuck I am rambling on about.
First pic.. on the left is all the shit I used to make the fan... but the shit on the
right is what I took apart to get everything to build the fan I built.
Circulates the air really well in there.
