What is a good fan controller for a Tornado fan?


Since my mom realized this thing was louder than she thought, she said i could get a controller for it . Now, which controller will be good for the tornado? That is the only fan i will be plugging into the controller so the amount of fans the controller controls doesn't make a difference to me.

This is the controller i am looking at right now:

http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProduc...999-502&depa=1

Is that good or should i get a different one?

the aerogate 2 is really good, the only problem is that you have to either mod the fan to connect to a 3 pin, thats not hard, or you can buy a molex to 3 pin convertor. other than that, the aerogate looks nice and controls 4 fans and watches temps

If you only need control for one fan, why not use a rheostat..
