Default Canopy Fans Added!

Hey, Happy Anniversary to you, Andrew.
About the fans:
Quote:
Thanks to Darren's advice I wired up the fans in parallel to halve the amperage to each fan. Now I can run the fans at full steam (12V) or at a crawl (3V) or anywhere inbetween based on my cooling needs.

The best part is that at 12V you barely hear the fans running, and at 9V or less you can't hear them at all! Exactly what I wanted. And being speed adjustable is a bonus!

2. What size fans? That's a very good price.

Thanks,

Alan
