It would add a lot to the cost of replacing the fans, so I'd look for fans that are not so electrically fragile if it was me.

There are bare computer fans but it's very difficult to find a decent looking 12v fan that's low profile enough to fit. I've only got a 50mm maximum depth recess in the galley. There are AC extractor fans with low voltage adaptors but I'm not sure they're suitable, so I've gone for the eBay 12v fans + the voltage stabilisers which I found on eBay for £18.

Midland Chandlers sell combined fan and light units, probably fit under mushrooms.

Thanks. It looks like the same ones as I've just bought from eBay, same wattage and same interchangeable covers.

I note they put MAX in big capitals next to 12V so I wonder if these are as equally voltage fragile.

Sounds like a plan
