Don't over pump them..... (yes it was full of water.... and yes I got soaking wet)

Out on my bin round today I spotted a car number plate - as I often do - with letters on it that made me "notice it". The last three letters were FSP and I immediatly thought of all the Forum Seed Pool seeds I had sown/grown and passed on to others. [FSP was used on my printed labels! :gri...

I suggested the idea of them going to the BCSS list, maybe as freebies. They would be a good source of seed for people to try out seed sowing - the whole point of the seed pool, afterall. Given the difficulty we may face in purchasing seed going forward we need to preserve and distribute what ever w...

I drain my trays sometimes using a wet paper towel or a wet jay cloth drapped down into the bottom and then over the top and down lower on the outside. It wicks out via capilary action.

It is wiring it all together that is confusing me..... :???: :???: The controller should come with a wiring diagram, Usually there are separate terminals on the controller for the panel, battery, and load, which should be connected up in a specific order, like this one: for example https://www.alie...

The panel produces up to 18V under load; the fans are rated at 12v. By running them at a higher voltage, they may rotate faster than designed (and consume more power, assuming the panel can supply ir), reducing the life of the bearings and otherwise be a bad idea as they may not be able to readily ...

My plan is to order some wire and connector blocks and use the two fans I've already got to test the idea. If it works I can then order some more fans.

It would be nice to have three on each side blowing a bit of a draft to create some air movement.

Stickers on the fans and the solar panels.

If I have more connectors available would I be able to connect more fans from the one feed? In full uninterupted sun the panel is spinning the fan at a sufficient speed to produce quite a draft.

Something like this.....
