I'm trying to make a cheap fan controller with electronic components and have ran into a little snag. I need to know the Voltage/Temp from cold->hot (100->210) or whatever it may be.

If anyone knows, it'd really help. Thanks.

voltage drop the ect sensor at different temps to get values. i dont know what the values are but thats how you can find out. the sensor changes its resistance value with temperature

Yeah, I figured as much. I guess I'll just have to do that. Take the sensor out and In a controlled environment w/ a temp gauge beside it and measure the resistances at different temperature to get an idea of how much the voltage will change. If I get something decent made I might be able to do a write-up or perhaps just sell some.
