I use a laptop fan, USB extension cord to a USB power adapter, and a digital timer got for $12 or so (all from the bay). Runs 7x a day for 15-20 min

Spring strong sweet tall green grass grow...


Here's an angled front view of the computer fans I found, as well a top view from behind the drawers. These pull air in from the gap below my bottom drawer and shoot it up the back giving a much better use of space than a traditional pass-through computer fan (IMO) and I got them cheap on Amazon.

I like those, how did you wire them up? Are they plugged straight into the wall or did you need a transformer of some sort?

it really is plug and go, but the usb connectiong from the fan goes to the extension usb, that goes into the usb power port, into the time. i set the time to go off every 3.5 hours or whatever for 10-15 min (wish i got a time with more on/off options so could be every couple hours for 5 min but whatever). kitty littler in a tupperware (have to find some coffins to make it look cleaner and limit any spillage

I'm with the "unplugger crew". ehh, sorta.
My wineador fans only kick on if the internal temp exceeds 70F . They primarily function as thermoelectric coolers, not RH circulators.
Being so, they seldom kick on. They have a few times in the summer.
