I don't know where this belongs but I am a miner so my "case" is a whole room. What I'm wanting to figure out is basically a blower wheel type cooler set to kick on anytime the room is above 80F and pump the air out a dryer vent. Right now the air is being pumped throughout my house using the furnace fan. When summer comes though that is not an option. With it freqently around 0 here in MI my house has been warm enough that I often open the basement window and 1 other to let the cold air flow in.

I plan on putting the biggest window AC unit in that I can but that won't be enough. I have 12Mh and climbing in my basement which is well a LOT of video cards

Amazon has stuff like this: http://www.amazon.com/Lux-Heating-C...=1392263680&sr=8-29&keywords=wifi+power+strip that I might be able to use or a normal thermostat if the blower has that kind of wiring.

Any suggestions?

If you want something heavier-duty, McMaster-Carr sells industrial thermostat-controlled switches that similarly feature a standard house-hold plug. They are on THIS PAGE of their catalog under "Plug In Temperature Variable Switches". Of course, it lists for $100, but since you know such a thing exists, perhaps fleabay might have them cheaper?

For the blower itself, you might take a look at a "Snail"-type blower that water-damage/carpet cleaning companies use. Like SO. Again, probably much cheaper used on craigslist or fleabay.
