Damn you. Why couldn't you have posted this last night? I had an old case fan and an extra power cable that would normally go to a power supply unit. I cut through the insulation and hotwired the fan to the power cable. When I plugged it in and turned on the power strip the conductors in the center of the fan exploded sending small bits of plastic everywhere and sizeable white cloud of smelly smoke into the air. Scared the hell out of me at like 6 in the momrning =/ Regardless, good post. I'm sure this should help quite a few people.
