I've been bodging together a shoe dryer but the small 80mm fan I threw on there just doesn't have enough pressure to push air with enough speed to dry my shoes.

If anyone has any old 120-140mm fans they don't need then i'm keen to buy them. I need up to four of them for this and another project. They don't need to be PWM or anything fancy as i'll just be running them at full speed the whole time anyway, plus i'm just bodging an old 12V wall wart for powering them on with no controller between.

Why not just dry your shoes in your oven? Large fan, optional heating, it's all upsides.... 🤣

I'm in Auckland but am happy to pay some nominal shipping costs.

Our tumble dryer has a shoe rack but running it for the >4 hours required to dry sodden mountain bike shoes felt unreasonable. I've used fan forced (non heated) shoe dryers before and so long as there is enough airflow they do a decent job with less power use.

I have some super high CFM noisy fans, what price were you thinking of, each? I am in Auckland.

It would depend on the fan model/size/spec. If you have that info and an idea of what you want for them then we can work through the finer details.
