Sharing this for a chuckle and as an object lesson to others:

This is what happens when you use a five Volt fan on the TinyG instead of the proper twelve Volt fan. Will it work? Sure, for a week or so. But then, friends, it will fail fantastically.

I knew it was going to happen at some point but there was a lot of pressure to make some headway on a project so I took the risk. It wasn't really a huge risk though, I knew I had access to parts and people to repair it. :) Skilled engineering techs are worth their weight in gold.
