well i had a fiddle today with a single fan (24 V 8 amps) and did not get very far, at best I caught a oscilation of up to 55 volts but it was all positive, this sucker just does not have back emf. The only thing I can think of it that the power supply colapses the voltage "slowly" as it has a soft on/off button, perhaps I should try putting a switch on it ?
