Right, my plan to cool my RUB abit is one of two options;

Have one of those tall fans that rotate blowing towards the rub, or another idea is to cable tie in place a foam bladed mini fan in front of the air holes o blow some cooler air in there...

How would I do the PC fans if I need to..?

Cheers.

Just double check that the fans are 240v not 12v. i have a couple of 12's laying about, but no old pc ones i dont think.

Yeah think I might go down the tip and er "borrow" an old computer..

Any fan will just move air, but, moving air draws the heat from whatever its blowing on, so it will cool things down.

Don't most fans just blow air to make it more or an even temperature rather than cooler?

Although I have no idea about pc fans, do the actually cool or just draw in the room air and cool with that?

This would help with the PC fans, im sure you could do something similar with a RUB. http://www.thecornsnake.co.uk/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=4315&SearchTerms=pc,fans


Edit: any chance a mod could put that thread into the DIY section. It could be pretty useful with the weather we have had and will have this year.
