Ok does the job, but I would prefer a larger more effective cooler. Why o why can you not easily adjust the fan to cut in at lower temperature. A simple utility would allow people to bring the fan in at a moderate rpm at a lower temperatures to get progressive cooling. More heat and the fan spins up or slows down at lower temps. Raspberry should developed a cooler for over lockers. Large heat pipe coolers are available and work well but why no official one?

Very easy to install and is effective at cooling for general work loads. Fan rarely spins for my workload.

The active cooler for Pi 5 is a must have, if you own a Pi 5 and don't have a cooler then expect a reduced life. It fits nicely to the board, is quite quiet and has a dedicated port so that it doesnt take up any GPIO pins.

Super easy to install, almost impossible to get wrong, and works straight away. Perfect.

Doesn’t really seem to help keep the pi cool and I had to pay more than the price of the product and shipping in import duty. Disappointing.
