Hi!
This is my first post here.
The electronics fan on my Ultimaker original got really noisy. I'd like to replace it with 2 small silent fans like in this design: https://www.youmagine.com/designs/ultimaker-electronics-fan-replacement
I wonder what the voltage of the connector on the board is. The fan that came with the printer has 24V printed on it, but here http://reprap.org/wiki/Ultimaker%27s_v1.5.7_PCB it says the connector would be 12V.
My Ultimaker was built last fall, so I think I have the 1.5.7 board.
Any insights? I don't have a way to measure the voltage at the moment.
Thanks,
Thomas

Thanks everybody.
I will first try to re-oil the stock blower. Actually that is quite obvious once you know that the bearing is right there below the sticker.
To mount the linked printable fan duct, I don't see why part of the ply has to be removed (except the two holes for screws)? Anyway, I now read that it may interfere with a heated bed electronics which I may install later. So I'll reconsider options later.
