Well guys, after I borrowed Lancer's paintball mask, I got inspired by his small fan on the top of his, to make my own system. Now, instead of just one fan, I have two! One for the anti-fog, and one for cooling my face. It took a bit of ingenuity, and sweat, but after going through two battery connectors, some cable, one switch, and lots of E-Tape, superglue and hot glue, it is finally almost finished. Its functional, now I need to cover up the ugly wires. Here is what I have so far: Tell me what you think.

Looks pretty cool. I'll be curious to hear how well it works. How much did it cost you for the fans and such?

Free for the fans, since they are old CPU fans, 2.99 for the package of 9V connectors and about 3 bucks for the two pack of switches. Just a side note: DON'T USE GORILLA SUPER GLUE ON THE SWITCH!!! it practically melted it...

Weird, about the glue. I might have to try this somehow with my flakjaks. I have an old power unit from the desktop that could fit the bill if it isn't too big. Post your final product and tell us how it worked!
