Hey ive decided to give my soon to be grow room pc a re haul, and i would like to add more fans from other old pc's i have. I have alot of phone chargers too, and I read that you could wire a phone charge to a computer fan and it would work, so i gave it a try and it does work. Would i be able to wire several fans together without hazard? Or sould i have 1 fan per phone cord? thanks alot.

You must check how much amps each fan pulls.
Add them up, and if the charger produces that much amps then it can work.

Definitely yes
You can purchase them from ebay
or just use a computer power supply
There is a DIY on how to convert a power supply to a 12 volt dc source. With that you could power numerous fans

I did it and it works great
