I've formed an array of 4 BLDC 70x70mm computer fans for use in a project, which I believe to each be rated to 1.2A (see image, apologies for poor quality).
When testing the performance of the array I used a variable DC power supply (image attached). As shown, when in stable operation at the output needed the DC supply was running at around 10V and 4.0A.
However I am now looking for a more permanent and portable solution for powering from a UK plug socket.
From brief research I have found Adapters such as this (1) and this (2) from RS which output 9V 4A from a 230V input.
Would this be suitable for the project? I will likely replace the connector provided with my own.
I would also like to incorporate a potentiometer or similar if possible in order to vary the output current, so any advice on this would also be greatly appreciated.
