I don't want to jack the thread... it was mainly an 'insider' comment to him =p.

However... my blower moves over 500 at nearly silent levels... 700 at 'normal' sound levels.

SK8 · Jan 28, 2004

i dont care if you mess the thread , whats the specs on your blower , also mine look better

!!!!

Ok you win your shroud is more gheto'r, i like it.

SK8 · Jan 28, 2004

trure, i just changed water to zerex + ac dye + Distilled Water

vonkaar · Jan 28, 2004

It runs 700cfm at 48v... nice and quiet-like. Wait til the paintjob gets finished, it may look better afterwards =p.

Korndog · Jan 29, 2004

Jon

they are 4 1/4" x 4 1/4" x 4 1/4" with a 2x4" outlet and two ~80mm intakes. outlet has useful mounting holes, 3 on each of the 2" sides.

HammerSandwich · Jan 29, 2004

I could really use some noise comparisons with axial fans. IOW, the blower at 24V has about the same noise as a 120mm L1A (or whatever) at what V? Does the blower make the same kind of noise?

Also, I know that blowers can handle exhaust restriction better than axial fans, but what about on the intake?
