I was gonna say the same thing about computer fans being worthless for pushing air through tight spaces. Centrifugal fans are what the EVers out there seem to use.

Ryland - didn't you attach a thermistor to a brush on one of your EVs to measure motor temp?

I am not as concerned about stator temp as I am with comm temp. That's why I thought the brush thing might work because it's probably the closest thing to comm temp.

I appreciate all your input.
