I know the general consensus has been that Oust fans are the "go-to" option for keeping a slight airflow going in end table humidors/coolidors, but I don't want to go that route for a variety of options. I've instead decided to rig a CPU fan and here's what I'm tossing around in my head…

12V/5V AC/DC Power adapter w/ 4pin molex connector
4Pin Molex Power to 3 pin PC Fan adapter Cable
Fan Controller
Silent PC Fan

Any thoughts on this setup? I went with the quietest and lowest CFM fan I could find, that didn't have bad reviews, because I don't want to have a tornado flowing around in there and I also decided to use the fan controller as additional backup. Will the fan actually be strong enough or will this be too limited.

I got all my fans and molex power cables from cooler guys... I can't remember off hand which one.. I'm sure I have the paper work somewhere.. But my fans are great .. they aren't SILENT but you can't hear them from across the room either; and a great price.

check them out prob cheaper than new egg..

but nonetheless your setup looks great! def would work and looks like it should be pretty quiet
