G+_Donald Kloss Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 How would I go about finding the voltage for a 120mm fan I bought them from the local electronics flea market and can't find anything about them, i don't have a variable power supply to check it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Tony Martin Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Anything 12VDC or lower should be fine. Voltage will determine fan speed, lower voltage lower fan speed. Heck, you could even go higher but you would burn it up faster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G+_GeezerGeek Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 I have a small batch of 120mm fans that were made for 120v. If that is the case for you, you won't hurt them with the 5v-12v. of a pc. They just won't go. :) The 120v fans I have were made as cabinet fans... not computer case fans, but you would not necessarily know it to look at them.

G+_Golden Retriever Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Use a computer power supply, test on 12VDC if it don't spin try AC receptacle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
