    After looking at the diagrams here {witch are very good} I still have a question.
    According to the one variable speed reobus you only recommend 10wats {80mm delta screamer ok} per channel
    well what Im looking at dooing is running this

    rheo 1 2x120mm delta 12v
    rheo 2 2x92mm delta 12v
    rheo 3 2x80mm sun <<< not sure on voltage

    is this doable?

    You need to be more specific on the fan powers, but if its the 92mm Delta that draws 1.5A, you shouldn't put 2 in the same room, never mind rheostat. :eek:

    Why do you say that?
    I already have the 2 120mm deltas 131cfm running why not ad the 2 92mm deltas for exhaust with my 2 80mms?

    I say that because Delta do at least six models of 12v 92mm case fan, ranging in current from 70mA to over an amp. I can't guess which you have.

    But two of the FFBs will burn out a 10W controller.

    so your sayihng I should go with more then a 10 watt controller then. Wouldnt that make more sense?

    If the fans on each channel add up to over 10watts, Yes.
