So i just upgraded to a 4010 12v fan and the center of the fan is getting hot / warm, is that normal to happen quickly with small fans?

It is normal for 3D printer fans, especially smaller ones, to generate some heat during operation. However, if the fan is getting excessively hot, it could be a sign of an issue. Make sure the fan is properly installed and not obstructed. If the heat persists, it may be a good idea to consult with the manufacturer or consider replacing the fan with a different model.

its also louder / the same as the 2510 fan

#

so im wondering why do people actually do this upgrade

#

when the fan controller controls the blower fan which is actually the noisy one you were able to turn down

Yes, since you overvolt your 12V fan to 24V

Your printer runs on 24V, have you put a buck converter in line with the fan?

#

#

scenic olive Oct 30, 2024, 3:07 PM

#

If you are the guy who I think you are, I told you to get a buck converter to undervolt the 24V fan to 12V

dusky vector Oct 30, 2024, 3:09 PM

#

yeah but why doesnt anyone in the videos do that

#

they get a 24v fan and they say its quieter

scenic olive Oct 30, 2024, 3:10 PM

#

They are content with the noise or bought a different/better fan

dusky vector Oct 30, 2024, 3:10 PM
