Fan tails?!?

[Dekar12]

Alright, I guess I screwed up when I was ordering Panaflow fans from Frozencpu and I didnt notice that they needed tails added to the fans.

So, I have 2 fans sitting here with just wires running out of the fan. I don't have any fans I can scavenge the 3 pin conectors from so I dont know what to do.

They have the rpm sensor which I want to use so I cant just solder them into a 4 pin molex to use them. Anyone have any ideas or a place I can buy some 3pin connectors.

I looked on Frozencpu's site and they don't have any fan tails for sale

I can get the ends for them, but they don't come with the little metal connectors that are suppose to be connected to the wires. If you look at a plug running off a fan there are little metal connectors similar to a molex. Its those that I am lacking. I jus thave bare wires

If you can solder or butt splice, what about this at new egg?

From looking at the picture, I'd say there are 2 in each packet.

Jima,

Thanks those are exactly what I was looking for.

I think im gonna just get the ends, since I have the wires and that kit comes with the metal parts.

Again, Thanks

I have a similar problem but I have Delta fans with no metal connectors. I have 3 pin connectors but not the metal connectors. Can you buy those from a hardware store? If so, where?
