Why don't these fan controllers add facilitation to allow PWM control of connected fans and a sensor adjustment for a bit more protection where needed

The whole idea behind PWM (pulse width modulation) is so you can plug it in and forget about it because the bios or software takes control and adjusts fan or pump speeds for you. Anytime you see analog knobs on a device, that should let you know that you will have to manually control fan speeds on the fly or if the hardware has the ability, you can set max and min temps to dictate your fan speeds based on the temps you are getting from that particular temperature probe channel. Personally I like seeing temps and being able to manually adjust. Also I just like the look and feel of analog knobs on a potentiometer. Hope my point of view helps.

zzzzzz.... use your search engine. there are other fan controllers that allow PWM control but you will have to pay for the price

You would need to connect the fan to an external motion sensor that would turn off the power to the fan and then turn it back on when sensing motion in the room. It is designed to run at a very low speed at all times and draws an insignificant amiunt of power. It would be less expensive if you purchased a different fan and operated it from the motion sensor, then you would only be paying for one motion sensing circuit.

If the controller regulates the power output to control fan speed, then yes. There is no transformer on this fan, the power level supplied determines airflow.

I set my fan on max and then removed the chains from it as this controller works great at controlling the speed of the fan from low to high. It has 4 speeds instead of the 3 most fans come with.

The communication to the fan is wireless (effectively the same as using a remote), so I'd think you could add as many controls as you want.

Yes, fans plug directly into controller and then the controller is power by a molex connector from the power supply.

There is a knob on the top rear of the fan that combines power on/off and fan speed.

Turns lights on and off. Fan on and off and reduces and accelerates fan speed.

I wondered the same thing but you only need to use 1 to operate the fans. Silly design IMO but I love it and it works.

If there are two wires coming out of the fan then yes. If there are three then you will need to build a pwm controller. If there are four wires, you will still need to build the controller.

The timing/speed data from only one fan is passed to the motherboard; the pulse width modulation (PWM) from the motherboard is delivered the same to both fans. It would probably be a good idea to use identical fans.

Yes, Change the 4 pin DIP on the fan receiver and controller (under the battery cover).

I asked LEDwholesalers the same question RocPopy, This is there response."Hello:Sorry, our fans are unlikely to work with fan speed controllers.Regards,LEDwholesalers"That should clear things up for everyone.

the fan will run automatically when it is powered on, there is no sensor or speed controller. There is no separate switch for the fan. Cooling is not exceptional but decent enough

They can only control the fan/ligh they are wired to. You can install 2 side by side, and they will still only control what they are physically wired to control. These are not "wireless" if that is what you are asking.

These fans aren't PWM controlled, so you would need a separate fan controller. If you would rather have PWM fans they aren't much more in price than non PWM fans, you should be able to find some cheaper than these.

I believe there is a switch on top of fan for that function. Might want to confirm with manufacture.
