Rod, I have an R1225 on solar power power right now, with two MTR2000's in the planning stages. Obviously, a continuously-operating fan will run down the batteries, so you should install a thermal switch on one of the heatsink fins. Digi-Key has some that work well, and I picked one that closes at 120 degrees. Use heatsink compound to ensure good heat transfer between the fin and the switch. Don't bother with complicated electronic controls- a simple thermoswitch is the answer.
