right..miller has fan on demand, but again that all comes back around to what I said in my last post about using just a temperature probe. But the unit I am talking about building would be a smart system that would detect the initial current and start the fan then and it could then keep the fan on until a desired pre programmed temperature is reach...perhaps 10 degress above ambient then it would go back into standby mode waiting for you to strike up again. If I'm working on fitting something up for 30 min then there is no sense in letting the fan run for 30 min while it's doing no good. Sure I could walk over and turn it off, then back on but usually by that time I have things in place just where I want then and need to put some tacks up, only to realize I forgot to turn the machine and the cooler back on.

So done correctly, nothing suffers. Duty cycle remains the same. I'm not saying there's anything wrong with your machines, I absolutely love my 256, just looking to cut down on some power use and unneccessary noise
