24 volt fan

[luvsrc]

I just burnt out my 12 volt fan on my 6s lipo,where can i get a 24volt or something that will work to cool my brushless system? thanks

what size are you looking for?

You could build a little regulator that reduces the voltage down to 12v or you could use a ubec to get the voltage down to 6v then use a 5v fans. I think there are some threads around here that may explain how to build a regulator.

Thanks a lot for the info guys:027:

I made this thread a while back about using a regular 12v regulator. Just watch the current you are drawing on it...

Here you go 27.6 volt 92mm should cool it.

He wants to cool it, not turn it into a helicopter:005:

I use a 60mm 12V fan on two 8.4V batteries (9V size) wired in series and it works pretty well. The over volting has seemed to hurt it in 2 years or so.
My system doesn't really get dangerously hot with out it, but it makes such a big difference to temps that I can't make myself get rid of it.

Anyone knows of a regular sized fan with a 24v motor?

Probably you could use two 12v fans to split the 25.2v between the two fans.

I use twin 6v fans, I soldered them together then to the main wires. I guess this makes it 6v and not 12v?
