Speed controlling computer fans
For years I have been using the Silverstone fm121 as it comes with a remote mounted speed controlling potentiometer, goes as high as 110 CFM and 0.4 amps consumption. It is fairly quiet for this am...

Thanks for the info.
At this point I have no confidence with my ability to set up the DIY PWM controller but will go over it a few times and try and grasp more of the basics required.
Are there any products available which can utilize the 4th PWM wire. Will this approach of using the 4th wire, rather then running black and red through a PWM dimmer/controller allow a lower speed?
The full speed of the 3000 rpm nf-f12 industrial version in my iuntended location would be regularly utilized, as will the slowest possible speed, but this lowest speed needs to be quiet. If it cuts out like the screaming banshee fan at 65% of full speed, it will be of little use to me and my money better spent buying another silverstone fm121 that can go to the super slow nearly silent speeds and still has the 110CFM max
I'd love to harness the Screaming banshee fan too, down to 500 rpm or so, if possible.
