cooling fan

[phebus]

What fans would work best to install in my amp compartment to keep them cool? Something quiet with a low amp draw.
Thanks

I am using fans from Radio Shack. In my application they are pretty quiet, and draw only .16 amps. They're around 16.99 or so.

I've found a push-pull setup seems to get the most air over them.

The worst place to mount the amps is in a closet. The only thing you could do worse than the closet...is put Crossfire amps in the closet.
However, there's only one thing that could make that setup even more dangerous- Crossfire amps in the closet with those ridiculous 6 volt golf cart batteries.
That is a dangereous setup. I've seen 4 boats burn down this week...
...and it's only Tuesday!

We use that setup quite a lot up here in Canada. It keeps the cuddy nice and warm in the cold winter months.

That's only when you bend over to look in the closet. Maybe you should stay out of the closet....

That setup will take care of any permafrost, eh?

Yeah...once you came out of the closet...there's no way I was going near it.
