Pi Fan Controller

Raspberry Pi fan controller.

Description

This repository provides scripts that can be run on the Raspberry Pi that will monitor the core temperature and start the fan when the temperature reaches a certain threshold. This fork uses a PWM controller via GPIO pin 18 to increase and decrease the speed, allowing one to set a maximum speed

To use this code, you'll have to install a fan. The full instructions can be found at the original guide: Control Your Raspberry Pi Fan (and Temperature) with Python. The only modification to make from the original instructions is to use GPIO pin 18 as this is a PWM pin (12, 13 or 19 would also work). Using a ground on the same side makes things easier too
