    I think everything is built in, all you need is an adapter. And yes, you can use computer fans to cool your lighting, they are extremely powerful and are not prone to fail.

    I actually have 2 4" brand new fans up for grabs. 2 for $10 + shipping. These are powerful and can cool a halide! Run on 48v and are real silent. PM me if you're interested.
