Or try your local car wreckers. The heater fans are quite powerfull in many
models and run quite happily on 12 volts with hot air as well.

Hope this helps,

Can someone suggest a low-current, light-weight, inexpensive 12 volt fan

use in the defrost branch of the cabin heat line for clearing up a

amount to much? thanks

Many hair driers have 12 volt dc blowers in them. I used a pair of
them in my electrified Fiat 128 for defrosters. Used another one for a
motor cooling fan.

When I scrapped the fiat I saved one of them and used it for blowing
up an air-bed for camping.
