Hi all,
I have a 5v fan rated at 0.36Amps. i have wired this into the usb port and it works great but it's very loud and i'm wanting to decrease the voltage so it's quieter. now i have done a little digging but i'm still not 100% sure what i need as i don't want to blow the usb port by demanding too much current as the port runs upto 500miliamps.
So any ideas which resistor i need to say lower the voltage to 3v? and perhaps 2v?
Thank you
