Hello All,
I am completely new do anything electronic but i want to slow down an 80mm computer fan and power it with a 9v battery.
A bit of background of the project. I am making some terrain piece for a wargame (warhammer 40k) and i want these to spin SUPER SLOW. My friend said i would need to put a resister in so they would do that and not kill the battery. What sort of resistor would i need for the 12v 80mm fan?
Also i plan i putting a switch in so i am assuming it would be batterr --> switch ---> resistor ---Fan
is that correct?
thanks for the help
Steve
