How do modern cars regulate temperature so well?

That seems like a terrible way to do it. So it's just a variable controller. Except electric fans aren't generally rated for variable speeds, they're rated at one speed. And the fan itself will be designed to be most efficient at that rated speed. That also means the fans are always on at some speed once you're within 10° of the thermostat open temperature? Again, there's no reason for that. The fans don't need to run at all once the car is moving at a reasonable speed, and the temperature won't necessarily drop low enough to shut them off even though you don't need them to be running.

Not only that, but most electric motors tend to like a specific RPM range. Not all fans may like being hooked to a variable controller like that. Big pass on that one.
ya, the all fans end up being variable speed thing bothers me too. the site isn't very well put together so a call would be in order to answer a lot of these questions. i don't know why you wouldn't set the fan "on" point just above what ever max temp your willing to see, so they have a chance to turn off, once the car is in your happy zone. since this takes the temp at a very different location form where most people install the temp gauge, maybe that accounts for the thinking... i don't know...
