| Cabin Fan
I have installed a solar panel with a battery tender to keep my battery topped off when not using my G-Wagon. I was wondering if I could add a fan (powered by the solar panel) to the air box (where the flap is located under the hood) and force a flow of fresh cool air into the cabin while it's not being used? I was planning on using one or two fans that are made to run constantly in HP/Dell servers. I have plenty of them from retired machines. The fans will each run at full power using 15W or less. Your thoughts? |
