Got 80mm Panaflos. They don’t have molex connectors .. Just two wires sticking out … Is there any way I can add molex connectors myself ?
Yes, you need to… I ripped a few out of an old PSU.
^^Even i wanna do something similar for one of my cabby fan. How to?! :S
If you don’t have a spare PSU to trash, you can buy molex connectors from the same store - should cost you 50-60 bucks a piece.
I have a spare PSU. There are two wires on the fan (black and red). So just open, remove, cut … ?
Yeah, and connect them to the fan wires… remove the extra 2 pins/wires from the molex connector since you won’t be needing them.
The molex connector costs 5 bucks a piece
I ripped an old PSU apart because the molex connectors were costing 60 bucks
Most of the fan have 2 wires = black and red … but on a Molex the RED is for +5v which will not power the fan to full speed … on the Molex you need to use the Yellow and Black wires to get 12v power.
I buy “Y” power splitters and cut the 2 Molex connectors off this for use on fans - they cost around 25/- at Lamington Road. I solder these on to a fan’s wires and use heat shrink sleeves to cover the contact area.
