I need to get 3 four inch fans for a canopy but dont want to have to have 3 plugs to go with the 3 fans.

Does anyone make a modular system where all the fans plug into one hub type thingie and then the hub plugs into the outlet?

Sounds strange but one plug is better than 3

You could always plug the three into a three way then plug that in. Or wire all three together on one tail with a plug

Most of the fans have block plugs(take up a ton of space) with some type of voltage converter in them so splicing them is not really an option.

Am trying to avoid splicing something together.....gets me a ton of grief from the wife....water electricity and spliced wires all in one area tend to make her an unhappy camper

I hear that hahaha. Radio shack has fans that just come with 2 wires, you can just wire a small plug on and there is no converter on them just straight wire. You can put these small plugs on a 3 way. I have 2 and they are very strong. Much stronger and sturdier than the corallife one i have. Been runnin for years too. Just make sure you get the one you can wire and plug into a household outlet and not a low voltage one for the computer.

It's cubic feet per minute. How much the fan moves in a min. The more the better but it comes with a little noise.

thats a big help....now I know what I am looking at.

So one is almost 3x as powerful as the other....wonder if its 3x louder as well

Probably not 3x as loud. But it could be annoying. You could get one strong one and let it come on on a timer when your not there. If it's too loud for ya
