How do you run a fan at 7V? I've seen a few people do it, and I remember seeing how to do it a while back... just forgot. I'm assuming undervolting a fan isn't bad for it...?

I don't think it is bad for the fan...In fact, it probably prolongs life because it is not running on as much juice...

this mod does not seem to work with the delta screamers, or mine at least

Undervolting isn't at all a problem for electric motors, it's basically how rheostats and temperature controllers work anyway (through the law of potential dividers).
