C6Bill Posted Saturday at 12:30 AM Report Posted Saturday at 12:30 AM (edited) Bringing this thread back from the dead. My pit viper fan broke last week and they were out of stock so I had to buy the pit bull as I knew I had another brisket cook coming up (going on right now actually). And that started me thinking if there were other fans compatible with the FireBoard pro and of course the “bbq guru” ports on our KK’s. Any one have any recommendations ?

wrandyr Posted yesterday at 02:06 AM Report Posted yesterday at 02:06 AM @C6Bill Did the housing break or did the fan stop running? I think the fan part itself is available from Mouser or DigiKey. I think it is a Pelonis Model Number RBM7530B1, RB7530 Series DC Blower.

Actually it was just the connector giving out right at the stress relief. If I could get the proper size connector I could just splice it on and have myself a good spare 😁

Make sure you get the polarity right, you wouldn't wan the fan to run backwards!
C6Bill Posted 3 hours ago Report Posted 3 hours ago I went through ll of the old ones I had around the house, i found one that was the right size but it didn't work when I spliced it on. I see that Thermoworks has an adaptor that looks like it could work with the Fireboard fan. If I ever have an issue with the new fan I might try that combination. I emailed Fireboard again asking if they had or plan to make an adaptor for a BBQ Guru size port but they didn't reply.
