I did a wiring job for a freind of mine on his 85 Mustang and he wanted to add electric fans. I told him to go the route I mentioned above, but hes one of those with more money that knowledge so he opted for the $130+ Derale fan controller from Summit racing because THEY recommended it... Naturally I found myself over there the first time he drove the car because it melted down the fan controller first time it was put to use... (hes running 2 high-amp heavy duty fans pulling upwards of 70amps) I finally got over there and convinced him to let me wire it MY way, cost him $30 for an H/D relay and a 185* switch and not a single issue since and he LOVES the run-on feature wich his fancy Summit unit doesnt offer... Just goes to show that just because a company makes it and charges an arm and a leg for it doesnt make the product any good, or useable in any real world situation... |

Awesome! Excellent story! That is an great example of why simple is better. I can't tell you the countless hours I have spent each night stuck in rush hour traffic with the piece of mind using this set up verses some fancy controller.
