Cool - care to give any details on how you wired this thing?

To start with I gutted a computer power supply. I left the power supply shell in tact so it would still appear as a plugged in working computer. The 3 fans I have running I wired to a 12 volt plug I had laying around from an old answering machine. 2 of the fans I have are for air intake and where from old Xbox 360 systems and the third is for exhaust and is put inside the carbon filter (also from a Xbox 360). All the lights are just wired to a normal plug to add the effect the computer is turned on 24/7.

Probably a little hot in there, now that the plans are blocking some of the air flow.

there is nothing blocking the air flow... unless you mean the carbon filter. and yes that is restricting the exhaust but not by alot.

Thanks for the info. So a 12 volt plug can run 3 fans? Any link you can post as to how to get all 3 hooked up to 1 12 volt plug?
