It's easy to set it up to run with a switch rather than temp control.

However, 24V versions are not all that common. The Davies Craig ones listed here all come in 24V but are probably not a cheap option.

Dunno if you could get a condensor fan at a truck wrecker or something, from air con or even a refrigerated truck.

Are you trying to replace your mechanical fan or just add some extra grunt?

If you have no luck finding a 24v single fan have a think about running 12V duals of some size then just wire them in series.

Good point, in fact a similar thing is done with a lot of 12V fans for half-speed operation in Euro vehicles.

A truck wrecker would probably be the cheapest, but who know what size fans they could have!?

Have you tried Spal fans website? I'd be surprised if they didn't make a few.
