Sy_Accursed Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 I been looking around and can't seem to find a straight answer anywhere so thought I'd ask you smart lot. My custom build pc, among other bits and bobs, is gonna have fan controllers with temperature detectors etc. My question is for placing the temperature sensors around the case what can I use to attach them to the case wall or w/e near hotspots. All I've read jsut sasy "tape" but i can't find any info on what tape and I'm fairly certain normal cellotape isn't gonna be what they mean. Any one got any guidance for me?

Laura Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 Why wouldn't it do the job? Where there any worries about it melting or catching fire? It's doubtful that a computer would reach such temperatures. I mean, I'd use something like electrical tape just to be safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sy_Accursed Posted June 19, 2009 Author Share Posted June 19, 2009 Because parts of a pc can get really hot and normal cellotape while the tape itself you'd be ahrd pushed to melt the sticky part has a fairly low temperature threshold and would peel. Or at least that what I have read on various sites and my general knowledge would suggest.

JoeDaStudd Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 Duct tape or electrical tape, either of them will work and I'm guessing electrical tape will be what there referring to as "tape". The only trouble is you'll need some alcohol based liquid to remove the sticky marks it will leave when you come to remove the tape. Sellotape (not sure if firefox's dictionary has the right spelling) will come off when it starts to get warm with a warm or cool airflow. I used electrical tape on mine and its still there 2/3 years later.

Laura Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 It shouldn't get that hot, even something like magic tape would work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The heat is only a small part of the problem, the air flow and the smooth surface of the case cause most of the trouble.

OldJoe Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 I use this for a fan controller, mom works at the hospital so we get them free, and these are very strong. Well back to the football match!
