Hello guys, im kinda knew to electronic circuits so i was wondering if it could be possible to somehow plug a normal pc-fan into a power outlet.
It would be nice with a simple solution, and not having to buy stuff to make it.
Most PC fans are 12 volt DC fans. You could power it with a cheap wall wart power supply. The only way you can power a 12 volt DC fan from household mains power is to convert the household mains power to 12 volts DC. Additionally you need typically at least 200 mA (.2 Amp) of current at 12 volts DC. So a cheap wall wart power supply would likely be the simplest solution.
