Re: [MBZ] Heat pump question

Nice score! I've got a 3 inch 12v fan from an old UPS that I'm going to re-purpose as a ventilation fan, solar powered, in my sailboat. It draws some very small current, I'm thinking it is 25 mA or so. Planning to put a 50W panel on a controller to both charge the boat's deep cycle battery and

Speaking of fans for wood stoves, I was at the thrift shop yesterday and found two 8" 12V fans. I bought them, and they're extremely quiet. 9 blades on them, they look like submarine propellers. They draw about 160mA each at 12V, and blow a nice amount of air. If these were on our wood stove I
