I read the locked post which mentioned a few of you used 24v computer fans to keep folks cool. Nice idea, but do they provide enough air flow?
I've been looking around and saw a few on ebay to include: http://cgi.ebay.com/Servicemate-SM3012- ... 35a595b552
Problem is we all know how the truck can get wet. Then i saw: http://www.caframo.com/marine/marine_pr ... ltfans.php
The last one is a suction cup mount and weather proof. Might be a little big but would provide great air movement especially while stopped at traffic lights (the worst part). Any one know of an inexpensive solution?
Gracias

need new fan
I have this...

Got it for $3. not good for air flow to cool, just moves the defrost air a bit.
The one you showed would be a better choice. One that rotates would be ideal but they are large as you say. Might interfere with your vision.

Just got done installing the Servicemate fan in the truck today. Made an adapter plate with threaded holes to mount with four M5 screws from the fan to the plate. Put in two counter sunk M6 screw in the palte to hold it to the wiper motor plate with lock nuts. Tapped into the wire to the map light for power and it's done.
Still need to work on mounting the other one for the back seats. could be a little more work.
This fan moves a lot of air for being so small, even has two speeds.
