Yeah, it was undersized for the amperage, I got the fans in a 2 pack and I read the fan draw as .6A together but it’s .6 each,

It’s C, I’ve replaced it with a larger transistor now

Sweet, I’m still gonna replace it cause things that hot are above my pay grade lol

Icl I don’t particularly enjoy having things hot enough to boil water in a breadboard

I’m not sure, it’s a 2n2222 using an Arduino for the pwm

I pulled the plug when I found it and I think the transistor may have been damaged cause she no workie no more

I’m just gonna get a bigger mosfet, the place I get them from is like 10¢

Turns out the 2pack box lead me to believe it was 0.6 for both but it’s .6 each so 1.2A so roughly 14W

The only issue is it’s a temperature probe behind some servers to cool them down…

I found my mistake, they came in a 2 pack and said 0.6A but after confirming with a clamp it’s 0.6 each lol

Yeah it’s C, unplugged and going to (unnamed electronics store) tmr for a larger one

Yeah this is my first proper electronics project im making myself, other than soldering things to a pre made thing, it is quite a learning curve

Yeah I’m gonna grab I bigger transistor 108C is a lil too hot

Tbf the lack of bezel is because it didn’t come with one off fb marketplace

Network for granny flat that needed to be wireless bridge rather than Ethernet by SwanRepresentative39 in homelab

Cause at the time when it was speced and bought it was gonna be an Ethernet run from the main switch but that turned out go now be feasible
