question about panaflo's

[Corporate Thug]

i just found some old panaflos but on the sticker i noticed it says 24V, is this ok to plug into the mobo or not? thanx

They're made for 24V operation, so running them on a 12V header is like running a 12V fan on 6V... it's going to run at about 50% speed.

Whether it's safe to plug into your header is uncertain. What's its amperage draw listed as?

I tried testing some 24v fans today, panaflo, papst... and they ran all the way down at about 5v. died around 3v.
