Hi lads. this is an odd one lol. U know the pc fans like this http://www.stumpsparty.com/party/Mascot-Fan.cfm Is it possible to hook them up to a battery to use inside a halloween costume? Or how would they get a power source? Would the battery use much drain ?

Most fans will run at around 5-7V. If you want them at full speed, you need 12V, or eight AA batteries, wired in series (though I suppose parallel would work as well? Been a long time since I've had to construct circuits), connected to the yellow for live, and either black wires for neutral.
