How much % is sparingly? I'm thinking of turning them off the entire print. It's a pretty large print.
Try with maybe 20-30% speeds after its printed several layers at 0%. You might even try your idea of zero fan the entire time. It'll take trial and error so you may figure out a way to test on a smaller print so you don't waste a bunch of filament.
I'm starting out with 0% first. However, I wonder if it will break my hardware as a device melting plastic at 245 C should have some cooling system or it will burn up right?
typically the fan cooling the heatbreak and extruder stays on even with the "extruder" aka part cooler fan turned off
