Hey guys, so I have this fan that I would like to use for cooling purposes in my office system. It's a vintage 120v "Whisper Fan" from Rotron Inc. It draws 7 Watts at 115 Volts.
I actually have 2 of these, I forget how exactly I came by them but #1 is doing quite nicely in a modified dresser drawer that holds my PS3. The problem is this, despite their name they do generate some noise. They flow far more then would ever really be needed to cool my little office amp, and at 1/2-3.4 speed (approx. Listening during startup) they are very nearly silent. Can I wire it with an inline resistor to bring the speed down?
Thanks.
