Fans could generate electricity and damage motherboard ?

Apparently not ALL computer muffin fans
use commutator circuitry because I have
one that does work as a generator.

I'm not sure if it's especially OLD but
it seems to have an old school DC motor.

Would this have been out of an application
where the fan speed goes up or down in
response to the CPU temperature?

Do the electronic commutator motors handle
varying speeds as good as the older style
motors?

I know for a fact that it moves a meter
because I put it into a kit full of junk
parts for a kids demonstrator kit
showing power generation and
electromagnetism.

Though the meter was ripped out
of a really old junk stereo and as
a VU meter I suspect it has a very
low current range.

However, I am not trying to sell the story
about a spinning fan damaging a mother board.
 
You covered your computer with a salivating dog inside it? The mind boggles.

I believe he covered his _computer_ when the dog was inside his
_house_.

I cannot believe that you are so friggin' silly that you cannot tell
that he was
poking him in the ribs from the very first post about "wet wired
computer dogs".
You are so silly to have missed something so obvious. The Hilarity
continues.

Liar. You are too stupid to perform a definitive test.
 
If you blow a lot of hot air in, it will generate a lot of heat
but little light. Just like this thread.

Oh boy! You're about as bright as the shadowy side of a dark,
massless corner of the universe, millions of lights years from the
nearest galaxy.

I am surprised you were able to move enough electrons to post this
crap.

That makes you far less hot than anyone else in the thread. At
least when
we fart, it rises.
 
greegor is so full of himself that he actually thinks that his
blanks do harm.

Keep shooting, greegor, "the retard boy". The doctors would have a
field day with you, Chucko.
 
You have all been hit by the NUNYA ! LOL.

NUNYA POWER ! LOL.

Bye,
Skybuck ;) =D

P.S. No and it's not me ! LOL.
 
G > Archie is a ball of fun.

Archie >   greegor is a stalking retard.

You sent me a gripey e-mail?
Was it a mistake or did you MEAN to do that, Archie?

Always glad to cheer you up though!
