Hi guys,
sorry to drop in on your community like this. I'm not an engineer but I have always been fascinated by electronics and always loved to tinker with it whenever I have an idea. Cant remember how many stereos I burnt back in the 80s trying to add as many speakers as I could! But my very limited knowledge cant take me very far. I chose to take another path and when it comes down to the real deal I'm lost.
I just would like to connect a thermostat to a 80mm PC fan. I would like to operate it on 5v which is the standard USB wall charger power supply.
I want to keep it simple and cheap as possible.
I found this thermostat on eBay and it looks like what I need. It looks like I must power it with a positive and a neutral and the other two connections perhaps are + and - for the fan?
Am I in the right place to get help?
Thank you so much.
