Extra fan for printing small surface

I want to print model with thin parts without letting the print rest.
I need extra cooling to do this. I plan to make a bracket to mount two fans on the printerhead.
Can you help me with an extra fan to make this possible?
Can the electronics support this extra fan?

Yes it does.

but turn off the printer before adding a new fan.

Only drawback, it reduces the print area.

Where can I order the fan?

You can look for a fan in your local computer store or on Ebay (pretty cheap).

Remember that advise from nevarore, and do not connect an extra fan to a powered printer.
I do not know why (too little knowledge on electronics) but I killed my extruder board by ‘testing’ an 3rd (25mm) fan while the others where running.

If your FAN output on the mainboard still works than are the traces of the extruder PCB to small…
