      I think if you Google it you will find complaints of poor reliability. DC Controls is a better option imho...

      I had seen you mention that a couple times Scott, then there are a few people saying they had failure of the DCC controller within months.

      Eight years ago? The few reports I have read were from several years ago.

      I have used 3 DCC controllers and they all worked flawlessly. Pretty sure Carl from vaporworx also has had one for several years without issue.

      Seems like your mind is made up...

      I've been using DCC since 2004. I stopped for a while thinking using the ECM controlled relay setup was easier/better. I was wrong. pwm is the way to go on high power fans just like fuel pumps. The key is to install it just like the instructions state and have very good electrical connections. Fuel is the same way.

      But, there is another option that is very, very close to release and is quite unique in the way it can be used. https://www.powersystemsmanagement.com/

      +1 DCC

      I have had one for over a year, and as of yet, I have never heard the fan run while i was driving the car.
      The most I have ever read voltage-wise while it was running was 6v.

      I think it is a pretty cool setup.

      PSM did not buy DCC. It's a new business venture.

      Yes, I am a part of PSM. More to come shortly.
