Electric fans
#1
Many moons ago I had overheating problems on my mag engined trials car - I foolishly fitted a fat modern radiator core and an electric fan. It was foolish because  it is too fat to refit an engine fan. 
The smallest fan I could find is 9" and draws 3.5 amps. On a one-site trial, like Cobham, there are no road miles to recharge the battery, so it goes flat and needs changing at lunchtime! Bad for my digestion......
 My dynamo only puts out 6 amps max and also runs the coil ignition conversion and multiple starter motor events.
Does anybody have any knowledge of a better fan that draws less currant?
