Hi Roger (and others),

Excellent question. I have solved the issue, BTW. I am currently using a
100mm and 80mm fans side by side with the 80mm blowing through the coils and
the 100mm blowing 1/2 through the coils and 1/2 over the coils towards the
upper coils - just like the factory fan did. They draw 500ma (0.5 Amp)
together, about the same or less than the factory fan. Much quieter and more
air is being moved.

I was wondering how you've made out with your fan upgrades.  I just re-read
your e-mail and started thinking that maybe that thermal switch is actually
heating up a little due to the current that you're pushing through it.  How
does the power (or current) for the new fans compare to the power needed for
the old ones?
