Does anyone have experience with running 12v case fans at 24v for extended periods of time?
The only thing I was able to find on the subject was this article, which shows that it can be done, but doesn't say anything about long-term repercussions:

Basically I have a 120mm H1A Panaflo fan (12v) with a 3-pin connector, and a mosquito trap which uses a 120 mm case fan (24v) and a 2-pin connector. If I get a 3-pin to 2-pin adapter, would it work (and be safe) to replace the fan in the trap with the Panaflo?
