Thanks for posting this info Paulie. The wife and I recycle as much as we
can and this is another way to reduce, re-use, and recycle.

did you actually changed anything to the cooling fan? or you just opened it
for curiosity?

You get past the obvious things. 1. No need to be extracted from the fan
housing. 2. Need to gather fans in one panel. 3. You can even put the fan
by one by one. Verified by experiments.
i think the blades would turn better if was facing opposite direction, of
course mounting would be more difficult and different cuz you would need to
keep the fan frame to mount the horizontal pole
Thanks. I will try this

Thanks, its really simple to make, all you need to do is scale it up a bit
and you’d have enough to power some pretty hefty stuff within the home.

you can use a 3 transistor to higher the voltage then the L.E.D work
brighter

no not realy but you can or may get more energy out of it by putting the
blade backwards

Of course it would, but its a PC fan!!!

Yes, it charges the battery while its turning, you should try it, its very
cheap and effective.

you need to invert the fan, the curve should face the other direction to
grab the air, not deflect it

why not just use the solar lights?

Not completely. It would probably be better to do the same steps with a
larger DC motor, maybe a radiator fan from a car

Mau, have you found a good way to light a bulb? If you need help you can

It might be cheaper to just hook up some more small turbines like that.
