“Fantastic, temperature has dropped from 80C down to 65C in the case(need to drill some extra holes for ventilation) with the case lid off down to 50C, i am really happy i got this, so easy to install.”
“Extremely effective little fan, drags the CPU temps down considerably just by dropping it on the headers, no software required. Also it has a well documented set of optional tools to set up thresholds and customise the switch and indicator LED. In my opinion this should be a standard addition with every Pi4 as I'm just not comfortable running the Pi4 at it's standard scorching temps otherwise! Certainly wouldn't want something this hot left on 24x7 as an internet of things device such as MotionEye, Weather Station or Flightaware without one.”
“Fiddly to assemble but works well and makes no noise at all.
I had to look closely to be sure that the fan was spinning when the green led came on.
My pi goes from a resting temp of 50 degrees C to about 60 degrees where the fan kicks in while running stress. Temperature never goes above 60 degrees during the test.
That is using the recommended settings.
Very happy with it and given the reports of how hot the Pi 4 gets it is a must.”
