im looking for low amp cooling fans for my car
i dont want to loose the cfm of the standard fans but looking to drop the amps as it melts my fuses and alternator sufers as im using small race alternator.

ive been looking at these from Burton power. seem good valus plus lower ampage...http://www.burtonpower.com/parts-by-category/cooling-system/electric-fans.html

anyone using the slim line comex fan they list i think its a 10" we use.

the high power on is 1960 cfm but over 10.9 amps , but the slim line one is only 7.6 amps but still a strong 1580 cfm..

with 2 fans 15.2 total amps is a drop in my currebt setup and im sure still better cfm(not sure what mine are standard)

im at work so cant measure

Careful with your units Dom - Burton are quoting in m3/hr, not CFM. 1m3/hr is approximately 0.5CFM.
