Wanting to use this to power a 5v fan from my usb on cable box. Will it work like this by using just the red and black wires?

I am not sure whether your PC have enough power to run a fan. I use it for data transfer and it works just fine.

Not sure or why to get this. There are plenty of USB fans available" http://www.amazon.com/Best-Sellers-Electronics-USB-Fans/zgbs/electronics/3015416011

Yes, it will, provided that the cable works properly. One of the four I bought had a short circuit that crashed my laptop.

Not sure, check with Targus (website FAQs); I am using USB for power from PC. Sorry.

Each one of those two wires the red one and the black one both only have one plug on the board, but where they plug in it splits off into two you could probably only use one or use your old wires on this new board. The instructions that come with the board are very self explanatory.

there are better ways to do that because this unit requires a 12v. power source to operate.you could use a 12v.a.c. transformer as the power source and the off timer contacts for the fan motor.i believe this unit requires a 8 pin socket.

If it supplies the 5 volt power that all USB devices use, then it can power this fan.

The device will work (albeit give less cooling) with 6V, but it will draw too much current (roughly 5 amps!) to be powered from a usb supply.

Yes sir it will work. My house outlets are all 120 volt / 20 amps. The Belkin F7C005 works just dandy. Thumbs up from me. Thank you.Dave

I'm not sure, as I only have a USB 2.0 hub... I dont see why not. Still 5 volts I believe and receiving I.R. Is probably low voltage. G.L.

No I don't believe so. The unit only has three wires, a neutral that allows the LED lights to work, Black is your line power in and your Red wire is your load out to your fan or light... I installed mine over a month ago And I already threw away the paperwork. If it has a fourth wire other than the ground then perhaps it can be used as a three-way switch.

No, the voltage pin on the cable is a power output. I learned this the hard way when I could not find docs online and ended up frying my board by connecting it to an external supply.

Yes, it should work. The adapter has a maximum output of 1.5A, which is quite adequate to power the fan motor. The adapter comes with a variety of connectors, so there should be one that fits the input jack on the fan, unless the jack is non-standard.

The unit specs are wrong on the website. The spec sheet on the controller it self calls for 12 volts ac for the power input. But it will run on 12 volts DC. It's just a relay that turns on and off when a certain temp is reached. So a standard 12v fan should work just fine.

Yes. Any simple cable will do, but it comes with it. There is a USB port on the left side of the unit and another on the rear where the fan controls are. This thing really keeps a computer cool. And the lights are amazing! In the winter I only use the four small fans because my fan is placed on the left side of my laptop. On hot days I use both the center and perimeter fans.

This is a 12V. Fan, you cold apply 12v. directly (Ground and +12V.) and it will work at it's maximum speed (google "pc fan connector" to find out) The connector is: |Ground - +12v - Speed sensor - Speed control|However this is intended as a computer fan, i will not recommended it for any other use.

I used this in a 5v setup (small connection part away from back plate of computer)

This depends on how much voltage and amperage the fan requires. If it is a 12v and .5A then you should be fine.
