Resistors

Try it with one pack of 2 10 ohm ceramic resistors. One in series for a medium speed and two in series for a slower speed.

You will find that they don't get very hot. Ten ohms with the fan motor in series is going to drop less than a watt. A 10 ohm, 2 watt resistor would do just fine. I used the 10 watt because it was available and barely gets warm.
