Hello people 1. do I install it between the fan and the PWM connector on the mainboard? 2. does it need an external power source or is the juice from the PWM connector sufficient? I would be very happy to get an answer. Greetings Easyk

Yes, the controller is installed between the mainboard header and the fan. Whether an additional power supply is necessary depends on the mainboard and the fans connected to the controller. The maximum load of a fan header of the mainboard should be apparent in its manual, usually around 1A. The current requirements of the fans can be found in their manuals or specifications. The controller comes with one connection cable without power supply and one with additional power supply via PC power supply unit. If in doubt, use the additional power supply.

1. that's exactly how it is. You can connect up to three fans to one PWM. All fans then rotate at the same speed.
2. is connected directly to the power supply via the cable supplied.
