Ok i bought two cfm computer fans from a local computer store rated at 133cfm each which i thought was pretty good. There were 3 wires red, black, and yellow. I assume red=power, black= ground, yellow=remote. No use for the yellow wire so i first tried hooking them up to an 9.6v adapter that I used to charge my remote control car battery and nothing happened. Then i tried hookng them up a 12v extenstion cord. POP! fan started smoking. Tried wiring the other way and nothing. My dumb a$$ did the same thing to the other fan to see if i hooked it up wrong. POP the second fan started smoking. I just threw away $30 in computer fans.
Can someone on here show me how to hook these computer fans up without running threw money trying to find out how?
