Sometimes it's a matter of just getting any kind of localized airflow. No need for a hurricane!

Something else about fans most people don't think of: They may be high air flow, but have little air pressure. This means that you need some airspace between the fan and the item being cooled for best operation.

Okay brian i wont get the hurricane LOL :005: . Thank's
