I thought it was a hen from show-winning lines that you might get. Wanted to know what I thought. Am I totally confused already this morning? usually takes a few hours longer

Must have gotten up earlier than you thought.
 
I'll take a look at it when I get home. I figure if I want the 12V fans to run at full speed they would each need a separate supply. So you're saying that one 12V power supply could supply both fans enough juice to run at full speed?
Both fans will receive 12V. As long as the amperage of the transformer exceeds the draw of the fans, they will run at full speed.
 
Yes sir. Wire them in parallel and they both still get 12v but the amperage demand doubles (add the two together).
Just make sure that the transformer has a big enough rating to run them both.

Take the Total Amps available from the power supply - the sum of the amperage of ALL devices. This should be a positive number. If not your power supply is not big enough.

Example
Power supply is .8a
Each fan takes .18a to run. There are 2 of them so the total amperage is .36.

.8-.36=.44
This is a suitable power supply

Example 2
Power supply is 300ma (which equals .3a)
Each fan takes .18a to run. There are 2 of them so total amperage is .36.
.3-.36=-.06
This power supply is NOT big enough to run both fans and will likely overheat.
 
What do you mean by wire them parallel?

Well if I wire the fans on the same than I'll have a spare 12V I could put the light on. I think I'll do the light separate so I can turn it off and on without turning off the fans.
I'm sorry chaos. Wiring in parallel means all of the positives together and all of the negatives together.

Thanks. Any thoughts on running one fan or two? post #62784 of 62957

Now I gotta check my power supply.

Parallel is where each fan is receiving power from the power supply... wires Y'd from supply. In series the power passes through each device in order of sequence. Clear now?

just sat down gonna go roll some dough keep saying I am making homemade noodle soup and havent done it!! feel like crap today so soup may do me good if I can get past the rolling of dough I am miserable dont want to effect yall
Grandma made the best egg noodles I've ever tasted; I can still see her rolling them out & cutting them. The ones from the store ain't even in the same league.

whites, I left the soup part in the pot and grabbed the spaghetti spoon for my dish

Good Morning Mike,

hope the weather is nice, its beautiful sunny but chilly here. It was delish Mike, they ate a huge pot of it, have enough for a few bowls tonight then its gone.

So I added 8 more SLP eggs to the bator Sunday to see if the feather trimming with my Roo helped hitting the right spot. If not I have to find another roo.

On another note...here are those AC babies I hatched out!!


And the one fibro bird...


sweet!!! congrats!!
