Review on 🌬️ Coolerguys USB Powered Cooling Fan Kit (80mm) - Beat the Heat with this Powerful Cooling Solution! by Aaron Moore

Design flaws with cables

Whoever built this never used it. The fan frames have cutouts on each side. The wire exits the exit side and the grooves should allow it to pass through the frames and further into the cabinet. However, only a thin, unshielded portion of the cable can enter the cutout. But that part of the wire is too short to reach the notch. It doesn't stretch and I can't fit the thicker wire in the groove. For this to work I would have to cut the wire and splice it half an inch longer. Or I could shave the notch more. Does not happen. This one returns. **Update** The company replied to me and explained that the error was due to the frames being designed for a different power source with smaller gauge wires. They instructed me to make a larger cutout to accommodate the larger wires. This worked for me. Be prepared if you buy the USB powered version. Added a star for customer service.

Pros
  • Nice to use
