Can anyone suggest a source for the following obscure thingie?
A small (1" - 2" or so) 12V fan feeding into a flexible conduit.

Not yet. But if it proves worth the effort I will.

She'll probably also be able to help you work out what spec you need (she's frighteningly knowledgeable about all sorts of things!)

I got boxes of 12v PC fans in all different sizes! Any particular size you want? I'll dig you a couple out if you want.

That would be brill Lee. The smaller the better - ideally 1", but 2" max.

Tell us about your cunning plan then Peetee? Does it involve a sidevalve and coolant by any chance?

As I said earlier, all will be revealed as and when it proves to be a winner.

Right Peetee, I've had a good dig in the 2 boxes I can get at in the garage, I've got a 43mm slim fan that works fine. The rest in those 2 boxes are all like 70 and 80mm fans so probably to big
The 43mm is off in the post today for you ;)
