Newell Future - Electrically Driven Radiator Fans?
#3

Yesterday as I was watching my hydraulic fan OHLA/motor bleed to death (which they fixed!!!) I thought about having all electric fans.
I talked to a few guys at All Aboard America yesterday (timely post). They said several of their Prevost either came with 4 large fans or could be retrofitted. The problem is how to power the fans. They are adapting a second alternator just for the fans. I think he said it was like 240amps output or so.
I have seen these electric fans used for years on City buses so the tech is there. I will volunteer my coach for a retrofit if someone will help with all the electrics. Maybe I should start a GoFundMe account for the good of the general Guru population...
