Those fridge fan units on ebay are $13. If you are handy, have some wire and a small switch they are 3.5" HDD cooling fans that are available for under $5. That's why all the mounting holes along the edges. Been using them for years on my desktop PC drives. Not sure what the switch is really needed for. Tap power off the control panel ON switch and it would be on whenever the fridge is.
Jeff's fan looks like a standard CPU fan.
I agree it's cheaper to make your own, but I posted the link for those that would rather not spend the time sourcing the fans, alligator clips, etc., as I did. I don't see any need for the switch either. My hot wire is dropped down through the drain tube, and tapped into the igniter board wiring.
