Light and fan in chest freezer

[odh2507]

So i have this idea of a computer fan and some leds for lighting in my kegerator. Possibly just running off a 9 volt battery or something like that.

Has anyone done this or seen a thread on it? If you cant use a battery how do u give it power? Im no electrician but its gotta be possible with parts from radioshack right??

You could just use a 120V fan and LED Xmas light string
Or these from the Shack: http://www.radioshack.com/search/index.jsp?kw=led+strip

I run 4 small computer fans for cooling and airflow. They run off 12v DC. I've used a small AC/DC transformer from some old piece of electronics gear I no longer use or remember. You probably have half a dozen of these little cubes around your hose. I connected the outlet prongs directly to the power lines that run the compressor, and split the output four ways to connect to the fans. When the compressor kicks on, the fans do as well.

You could also wire it up before the switch that controls the compressor, or simply plug the transformer into the wall, and your fans or lights would be on all the time.
