I have this: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=BB-002-LP

Lamptron Fc6 20w per channel, 4 channel's
Isit safe to run 2 fans per channel with 3 pin splitters?:confused:

Fans:
2x 120mm spectre pro non led http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=FG-032-BX
2x 120mm spectre pro LED http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=FG-013-BX
2x 120mm Fractal design R2 silent series (Already using these in the top on a splitter but worried about using splitters on all channels)
1x 200mm Spectre pro LED http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=FG-021-BX +1x 120mm spectre pro non led

PSU: Corsair CX750w

I wouldn't be running them all at full pelt when under load.
Thanks for the help
 
20W is a lot of power for fans and could probably manage to run all those fans on a single channel, if you wanted. Spectre Pro fans are around 1.2W from memory. The led will add a few hundred milliwatts.
 
0.11 amps over a 12v rail comes to 1.32 watts for a 120mm spectre pro fan (non led) you linked above (0.11*12) so Tealc wasn't far off. That's assuming that the description on the OCUK website is accurate.
