DC motors with brush will give interferece But even DC motors have brushless type now >I have tried the 8case fan (0.22A, 8cm at $35) from Cybermind, but I >still found the 12 cm fan cooler. > >Better still if there exists a 12cm DC fan. Pls tell me where I can get >this fan in Sim Lim(or else where). Try Sim Lim Tower not SIm Lim Square, there are shops on 3rd and Basement which sells these stuff They cost only $ 5 ~ $10 ... Even that I consider expensive. Dot pay $35 for a fan unless you want to chat up the sales girl in mini skirt The cost price of these type of fans (consumer product) is ~ $ 1 to $2 You see the mark up by the distribution chain.
