A solution that I created to increase air movement and fight humidity on passively ventilated sleeping quarters/cabin.

Printed separately with PETG, didn't use supports. I melted the fan connector to keep it attached. Channel has room for ~100mm x 40mm vent, so it could be installed on top of existing vent cap

I used 4PDT ON/ON switches, case fan, dc barrel jack and gutted cat5 cable.

HI/LO drops 12V to 7V, I preferred to wire the ON/OFF to positive and HI/LO to negative side

Model has multiple channels for wiring and room on top for future update (sensors, IoT, PWM, ESP32, etc.)

3 pin fan connector is a bit more complex subassembly, but here is a rough mockup

 

It's a bit complex but well thought concept.

Fan change is tool-free, just twist the shell 30 something degrees counter-clockwise.

Fan slot has some room for vibration reducing padding. 

 

And as always with electricity and pointy things: you are the one responsible, be careful, use your head and have fun!
