evening guys,
got one i need a 'lil refreshing on. put my new water loop last weekend and all good. now i have 3 scythe gentle typhoon 1450's connected to a lamptron fc6 controller. all hooked up ok, although i'm not currently using the temp sensors - will fit them at a later date.
now the issue is that the controller only get the fans upto 1260rpm. now iirc the 1450's are rated at 0.049A according to the stickers on them, the lamptron is upto 20w per channel.
so working on the formula of .............volts*amps=power
so with that being 12v * 0.049amps = 0.588 watts...............am i missing something or is that correct?
so the lamptron has a capacity of up to 20w per channel and one fan per channel so should have no probs ramping up to full speed.
any ideas as to why this may be? anyway that the pots maybe to blame? not sure as when turned all way down they go to zero and the fan stops, turn it all the way up it spins up but only to 1260
no great shakes at the minute but a bit puzzling esp if i need to ramp them up.
there was a thread not a million months ago where this was discussed iirc it may have been lord jim talking about it - but i can't find it now
