rapturestar Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 What are some projects I could do with unused power supplies? I was thinking of using one as a cooling fan on the side panel of my current PC. Suggestions are highly appreciative. Hak5 Rocks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparda Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 You could use it to power a bunch of halogen lights. Don't use it as a fan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
