well put it this way those fans are 12v DC so if u have a 12V DC charger and u hook them both up to it then its only gonna be giving the fans 6V per fan so they're not gonna blow very hard ya feel me ... so if u have 2 of em i'd hook one charger per fan

if ur lookin to hook those up to 1 charger full power, hook the positive to positive on the first one, negative off the first fan to positive on the 2nd and negative to negative on the 2nd fan, u will get full power to both but if one goes out both do. i found 12v fans directly to plants withing a foot or so blow them pretty hard (if there as small as the shotglass plants) so i wouldnt suggest full power on it, but its good knowledge

oh n btw i cant stress enough on finding adapters with an equal or lesser amount of DC on it, my friend tried to wire his in with his lights and he completely fried his fans, they started smoking as soon as we plugged em in, $20 down the drain on 2 fans right there.. that also happened on my comp fan which was smaller then a 12DC fan and i hooked it up to 12DC and it fried as well, its really easy to fry those mother fuckers, im hooked up with a reg 12dc charger to the correct sized fan for intake now but i have a dimmer on less then 1/2 cuz it blew my sprouts way to hard, but through experience on wiring comp fans i can try to help u answer whatever u need to hook it up (it really isnt much lol a trained monkey could)

if you are talking about hooking up comp fans for plants, this is what I did.

Get an external cd-rom drive, remove drive and hookup as many fans as you want or can.

This way you can either leave it on and plug it in with your lights(what i do) or just use all the time.

my ways easy lol.. ive never heard of the CD drive way.. idk why you would go out of your way to pay for one of those when with my way you could hook up 100 pc fans to one charger at full speed using my way
