I was going to do as you suggeted, Brian, but I had built a nice wood cabinet
to house my two 1541's and 1701 monitor, so I also picked up a couple of cheap
cooling fans from Princess Auto and mounted them in the cabinet in the shelf
between the disk drives and the monitor.
I made a Youtube video of it here:

I've got to get to a Value Village some day!
When I was last into Sayal in Mississauga they also had a wide assortment of
adapters.
One may not get an exact match, but there is likely some thing in the bins
that is a close enough match.
Paul, why didn't you just pull power for cooing fan off 1541 power supply?
I guess this is a dumb question, if you mounted fan externally ;-)

I've had pretty good luck finding this sort of thing at the local Value
Village, where they sell them for $1.99 a piece. That's where I got the one
that powers the cooling fans for my 1541 disk drives.

Hey everyone,
I'm looking for a 4.5V DC power adapter, 500ma or better. I realize this
has nothing directly to do with Commodore stuff and in fact I don't even need
it for computer equipment. :[ But I thought at least some of you are probably
like me with a box of old adapters laying around and maybe someone has a 4.5.
Golan, can you send me the name of that electronics store on Bloor? I
think they had a batch of cubes - perhaps I could call them and see if they
have what I need.
