I would pay R400 for this, but I can't import. :(

Ebay it or get a 'leccy to make it. Not very complex setup

If you interested in building it yourself:

Vero board(R25-R75) + sil headers(R8 for 40pins) from your local electronics store.
I see there is also an option with a female molex connector(R5?)

Price's are estimates from mantech's website, if you're a student with a student card, you also get a discount from them.

Or go to Communica, buy the bits and a soldering iron and just DIY it. Seems incredibly trivial to do.
Communica? Is that in Cape Town?

I would like to try myself, I can't really talk to strangers.

I will check out Mantech's website right now. I want to try to build this myself!

Thank you :D

(more advice is welcome)

They have a Cape Town branch. Google is your friend for contact details.

Small breadboard,6 fan power connectors and a Molex connector. Run yellow and black from the Molex to a central pin on the board and then do the same for the fan connectors (in parallel)
I'd even put an adjustable rheostat on it to allow all the fan voltages to be adjusted

Once you're happy with the working design you can use something like smartdraw or circuitmaker to design the final PCB for printing,then solder your components on for a more permanent solution

Agree!!!! doesnt seem to hard. long as you got the plugs.....PCB board. and u A for away


Basically a PCB with connectors... You could have someone (like a student at a Tech) to make it for you.[/QUOTE]

Another thought.....I asume you want to use this to control your pc fans......why dont you consider getting a fan controller. It sits in an empty 5.2 inch DVD rom bay. has those exact fittings, and you will be able to control fan speed. also the device monitors temp with a LCD screen. goes for about R400 or less at Matrix Warehouse
