I want them, they are at an excellent price, but everywhere I look shipping absolutely kills.... I dont need anything but the fans.... Can anyone help me out?
 
Yes, I got something around 7 bucks to ship 2 through the mail.... Is there anything better then that or will i just have to accept it?

Two 120x25 fans for $7 shipped and you want them cheaper???:roll:
Un-f-ing believable :shocked:
 
Nexfan has a $5. flat-rate shipping (use the code cheapship), SVC.com has them for $3. each for two or more and they have a "super saver" shipping option. I agree, Jab-tech needs to figure a way to get shipping down for small orders... Other than that, it's a great place to buy from. I don't know what petrastechshop.com does for shipping, but they have a decent price on the fans as well as carries the mid-speed model that I haven't seen many other places.

Well for one thing that was $7 in shipping 😛 It wasn't that the price was bad. All I *thought* was that $7 to ship two fans *might* have been too high and somewhere else may ship them for less. Dont think for a second that im *that* cheap. Thats still an excellent price that im fine with paying.
 
Yeah, I'm building a PC for my mom. Really small in power (just email and internet and watch a few streaming videos). Normally I use 120x38mm Deltas but these should move enough air to get the job done and be really quiet.
 
I checked petrastechshop. The price ends up being $10 for the fan and another $10 for shipping. So it still looks like Jabtech is the best place currently. Another question, from the wiring diagram on Jabtech, I take it that the fans do not have any sort of RPM control? Now I'm definitely no silence freak. (I sleep 10 feet away from a computer with 3 36dba fans going). but since its for my mom, I want it to be as quiet as I can get it for her.
 
The YL 120mm is really quiet.
The YL 80mm is a little louder but if you're really bothered by the noise, may I recommend going with the 80mm Panaflos.
 
Hey OP, SVC.com should be cheapest: $6.00 for 2 fans + less than $6. for "super saver" shipping - the total I get is 11.14. and I'm about as far away as one can get from them.

I have Panaflo L1A 120mm in my Sonata II and a Panaflo L1A 92mm on my heatsink as these were the 'best' (performance and quiet level) at the time I built my last PC (spring 2003). Are Yate Loon better than the old standby L1A's?

The Yate Loon 120mm fans really do a great job of cooling plus they're cheap and quiet.

MY LL PC-7B have now four 120mm YLs and they do a fantastic job of cooling and they are quiet. I still use the AMD HSF on my cpu. My cost was $27.
 
Got a question...

Comparing a Yate Loon fan (which is probably the cheapest workable fan available) to a Papst fan (which is widely considered to be the best) I see a big difference in the size of the motors... Panaflo fan motors (another highly respected brand) are even larger!

Does this NOT make a difference?
 
The plastic isn't very durable though, not the soft, flexible kind. I briefly stuck my hand in the case while powered, the spinning fan barely scraped my knuckle and one of the blades snapped off.

Fortunately I had several spares.
 
I think I got one of those (identical - unusual connector and finger guard) JMC fans for under $10. from bgmicro some time ago - I'll have to dig up the invoice on that order. I sold it with one of my old cases a year or so ago.
