[Elecraft] FW: [K3] Fan Replacement - fan rating

2014-08-19 Thread Jim Miller
Did anyone bother to verify the rating of this fan vs. the factory one? Does it have the rated capacity the original has? It is rated to operate at low speed without heating up or some other malady? Is the construction such that the lifetime is more than a few months? Is the current draw similar
