Orion Fan Order Post here ASAP

Jake, hi not too late. I thought you had purchased, I'll add you in
5" fan is correct

Work is nuts, system outage, soon as it slows down I can call & place order

Definitely A/C fans. Terminal means (I think) you could either solder or use a quick connect

Dave,

Do you know whta we are going to have to do to wire these bad boys? THey definitely are AC correct?
 
I'll have to take a look when I receive them & see what makes sense. I may solder cords on, or use quik connects.

I did receive your E-mails - for some reason Hotmail tossed them in my junk mail folder. I did send you a PM/E-mail at some point about thread.
But I have added you to the list I will order from (haven't updated the one online here - don't worry).
(12) 11-1's
(10) 11-2's

20 guards
 
Order is in, guards are (she thinks) $1.75 each. She will leave message at my house w/confirmation & hopefully shipping amount. I'll post again once I hear, but it may be tomorrow (heading out tonite)
I really need......:beer:
 
I'm waiting on confirmation of shipping. They may drop ship directly to me, or 1st to Powell distributor, then to me. I should hear this week (or receive). Once they tell me shipping we can split that between everyone. Then I'll post final "bills".
 
I'll check. If it is too late there is U Do it electronics less then 1 mile from where I work. I'll check there.
 
SCott, I talked to them & they are going to see if they can add 4 fan guards to order. If not I will check U-Do it & see what they have - it's right near where I work.
 
They were supposed to call me back to confirm shipping & if they added the 4 fan guards. I'll have to call them again.

Dang it!! Double dang, I knew the SCWD U-tubes had arrived at my mom's but didn't think about the fans. I think both are there now. I'm gonna run up & pu both. I work in Wellesley & will be going to Gloucester for weekend. I'll post when I get back home.
 
The fans are IN!! :dance:
We recd:
(12) 11-1's ...... They look real nice!!!
(10) 11-2's

20 guards

Scott, I will see what U-do It has, they didn't get the additional 4 added to order.

I haven't received any info on the shipping $$ figure, they mail the Invoice separately.
I'll have to figure that out.

I work in Wellesley (right off Rte 128 at Rte 9 - Harvard Pilgrim) if anyone wishes to pu at lunch tomorrow - Noon to 1pm. Or immediately after work 5pm. I am then heading right to Gloucester.

I am unavailable during work hours. I am leaving immediately after work Friday and going camping (Gloucester). So will have to arrange pu next week unless anyone else wants to find me in Gloucester (diving during day).

Monday after work I am going to check out U Do-It electronics for connectors, I will pu enough for anyone who wants them (to wire/quick wire). I may look into some quick-disconnects.

I fired up one fan of each kind. The 11-1 (29db) pushes a lot of air & is fairly noisy, the 11-2 is very quiet. My plan is for the 11-1 to be on the sump (stand will quiet the fan), and the 11-2 on the hood.

I can't imagine the Radio Shack at 38 db's!!!!

Bumpin this back up. We ha d a problem at work Friday & was camping all weekend. have to catch up Monday w/everyone on pu/delivery/payment. I am going to U-Do-It electronics to look for connectors Monday after work.
 
OK, going to find out shipping cost per person today/tonite.
U-Do-It Electronics (near my work) has Fan guards for $2 w/tax.
I also pu some small quick connectors that fit the fans. They cost .25 per fan (2 pcs). They are "size" 110 for 18-22ga wire, need to be crimped to wire (or soldered). You could also simply solder the wire to the fans connector, but I prefer disconnects.
Let me know if you want the quick disconnects, or if anyone wants additional fan guards.
I'll PM each person w/total (once I hear back on shipping). Thanx

Dave, I'll take four of those quick connectors if you have any more. When you drop off the u-tubes at tstone's, can you also drop off my four 11-2 fans, two finger guards and quick connectors? Nanonano is going to pick up everything for me from tstone's. Thanks for pulling all of this together. I know it isn't easy chasing people around.
 
OK, I don't have the Invoice yet, and they haven't charged my credit card yet. So I'm checking the mail tomorrow & hopefully have the breakdown. 1st time I've ever received what I ordered without 1st being charged.
 
bump. These fans rock!! Tank is at a steady 80.5. OK I turned the 2nd 250w on (500w on 60g) & it crept up to 80.8 to 81.
