Hi Steve,

Anyway that you could get a fan that runs off USB? I think you could do something like 3 x 3.4 Watt panels going into our V39 Battery. We have a way to switch the battery into “Always On” Mode which would allow it to run continuously (and start back up again if the battery runs out of juice).

See
https://voltaicsystems.com/10-watt-solar-charger-kit/ (to charge the V39 you want the circuit box set to 6V).

I’d like to adapt this installation slightly to ventilate a dog house. The adaptation I’m considering will add one of the batteries to power the fan throughout the night.

Will you please let me know which Voltaic parts I’ll need? I have a very sunny, southwest facing area in South Eastern PA and want to use a large computer fan like the one pictured.

Thank you!
