Hey all,
I'm pretty new to the electronics scene, so I'm also pretty bad at it and there are plenty of things to learn from you guys
Basically I'm hooking up a bunch of PC fans to cool down a bank of electronics equipment at the sound desk at our school. I'm going to use a 12VDC 1A transformer, then hook it up to a PCB, run it through some resistors to then power the fans, as they all run on 12V, just different aperages. I was wondering how I would calculate the value of the resistors I need to, for example, change the 12V 1A load to a 12V, 0.7A load for one of the pc fans? there are a bunch of other different bearings for the other fans so if you could explain how as well that would be great thanks
