The fan is to keep the motor from getting hot. o.O


I've always thought it was better to break it in at a slower speed for longer instead of a fast speed for shorter. You go to OCRC, don't you? I'm sure there are plenty of people that would let you borrow a motor break in charger or something for 5 mins.
