Maybe some "dumpster diving" would yield some results? Check the local junk yard & look for fans. Some models, and window models, have a tempurature control knob. I've found two of them, and since they work on any voltage, you want to make sure you don't hook them up to something that draws a lot of amps. For small 3-5 inch 12v fans like in computers, they work great! Also, most thermostat controls like the one mounted on the wall for your home heating/AC will handle those small fans too!
Good luck!
