I've found a few places online that have them Find another fan that has the same mounting holes (80mm -- note the *thickness* of the fan, also!) and operates at 12V with <= 0.30A. Chances are, it's just a generic fan. If you have access to a lot of surplus fans, look for one with a ball bearing *and* something that is "quiet" (assuming noise is an issue). > listed but when I call they, don't have them in stock or the price is > prohibitively expensive.

Sure, if you're to use cable ties and/or duct tape to mount it and assuming the replacement isn't thicker than the original. Otherwise, it's good idea to check the thickness and mounting method.
