Coolerguys Dual 80mm USB Powered Cabinet Cooler for Cabinet & Home Theaters Buyer Reviews

Overall a great purchase, they came ahead of schedule and well packaged. The fans are easy to mount to the back plate, and the material the back plate is made out of is pretty darn good, not just some cheap plastic.The fans themselves are very quiet and nice quality. It came with plenty of screws and even screw plugs to cover any holes!When I save enough to build a better cabinet for my equipment I will most likely order my cooling stuff from these guys.Also, other reviews said that the holes didn't line up right, however as of my order they line up just fine so maybe they fixed that. :)

It's a bit noisier than credentials like - rank of rattles - I can hear it as not anything moreover is on and I had it plugged into my XBox360, which the USB haven on it runs all the calculate.I flat including the intention of by being compensated a USB additional room cable, and plugging it into my reciever (Sony STR-1020, recently purchased early Amazon), in check over of the fact including the intention of it powers the USB haven single as twisted on....I don't hear it currently.Seems to step enough air to get the career made, though I've yet to mess about my XBox in check over of the fact including the intention of installing it austerely awaited to a be deficient in of emancipated calculate, so I can't display including the intention of it'll do the ploy including pledge confidence, save pro I'm extremely particular including the intention of it will.I installed this into a TechCraft XLN62 TV Stand/Console/Cabinet including the intention of credentials recently purchased - even though it's water supply calculated and has vents owing to the underside, back and shelves, the air doesn't step water supply as the excitement rises and stops against the top, and has no where to go...it would get sweet sweltering in there - hotter than credentials like. I had to trim the back panel to make it all fit (thankfulness Dremel!) and then reinstall the fans so they blow out instead of in, bed in the fiddle including guards, and screw it to the back panel/cabinet. Looks like it belongs there, so I'm lucky including my cleverness to bed in it ;)Short of including the intention of, it's a sweet straight forwards, and it must do the ploy. I think it was worth the cash...

I purchased this to go in the cabinet at church that houses our computer for our big screen. The cabinet was always warm inside. Once I installed this, it is not as warm anymore.Assembly was easy, just make sure to have the fans point the correct way before you install this. It will save you having to take it back out and re-install it.What I like about this is that it runs on the USB from the computer, so when the computer is off, this is off, and likewise when the computer is on, this is on. I don't have to worry about someone forgetting to start or stop it.

I got this to help my PS3 cool itself in my enclosed entertainment cabinet. Without it, the PS3 sounded like a jet engine trying to cool itself, even with the doors on the cabinet open. I installed this fan in the back of the cabinet and plugged it into the PS3. Now, whenever the PS3 is on, the fans run and stays nice and cool. The fans on the PS3 even seem to run quieter now that this is helping to pull the hot air away from the system. Definitely worth the investment and slight hassle of installation.

New desk required CPU enclosed which created excessive heat. This Powered Cooler solved the problem. Trapped heat is no longer an issue. Easy to install and powered by USB is a plus.
