Panaflo 3 Pin Tail Adaptor - Help.

[Fallenjedi]

..

Greetings -

I just bought myself a new fan and Thermalright AX-7 ... but I didn't notice when I bought it that the fan was tail-less. see it here. So they sell the new cord with tail and connector here.. - but everyone seems to be out of stock. So ... my question is ... what can I do with the leds - how should I hook them up or what should I do, until someone (I've checked three online places) get these in stock?! Help.

you can get a tail here

they are reliable and have a QUICK turn-a-round

www.2cooltek.com has them too 😉

To get you up and running ASAP, you can power the fan by using the 4-pin molex connector from your power supply. The red wire of the fan needs to be on the yellow wire and the black wire on any of the 2 black wires. How you decide to connect the wires to the molex connector is up to you. Just don't short anything because that could kill the power supply and/or harware 😱

Odds are your Panaflo isn't RPM sensing (no -BX suffix on the label). You might as well hook it up to a 4-pin molex like the one at PC Mods.

Also check out svcompucycle.com.. Their prices are better than PC Mods prices.

the mods forbid me to post frozencpu website because it belongs to a banned member...

and fc has the adapters for $3!!!

Spend $8 on a crimp tool and buy a hand full of Molex connectors. Not only is it nice to have the supplies on hand, (for those spontaneous case mods) you will save money in the long run.

Easiest and cheapest is to insert the wires into a floppy connector and tape them in place.
