AC Infinity AIRPLATE S5 8" Quiet Cooling Fan System with Speed Control for Home Theater AV Cabinet

Well, let me begin by saying that I typically try buy things from companies that I have had good experience with in the past. This is another example that where I’ve acquired this AC Infinity controller to install in my A/V media component cabinet to improve ventilation. I recently installed a few expensive A/V components and a media sever (NAS) in my cabinet. With the new arrangement, I noticed my NAS was reporting temps in mid-50 degrees Celsius, which was warmer than I had hoped. I then decided to install AC Infinity Fan controller and fans in the cabinet hoping the results would yield improved air flow. It looks very professional and worked very well. but not as much as I would like. I purchased the fan controller and 4 dual intake/exhaust fans. Positioned the two dual exhaust fans near the bottom on each side of the A/V media cabinet and two dual intake fans near the top on each side of the cabinet. I installed the controller on the top of the cabinet on the right side. This setup worked perfectly. Have a look at the pictures for the installation as well as at the temperature monitoring results of the NAS, which runs throughout the day and night. I am very please with the look and the performance.

Great product price is bit High but worth spending. Work silently when on full speed too. Quality of fan is top class.

Fiddly to rearrange configuration , but it works great!

I hate reviews for custom installation items like these that don't list their use case. I have a TV stand for my home theater setup that has enclosed cabinets. Cabinets are fairly well sealed everywhere except the backs, where it has an oval pass through for wires about 15" long. In one cabinet I house a home theater PC that runs 24/7 for DVR services. It tends to run fairly cool due to going overkill on the video card and CPU, but still adds some noticeable heat to the cabinet, about 15 degrees above ambient at rest. On the 2nd shelf I have an Xbox One S, which when it is running, heats the cabinet up pretty severly. Though no failures, it is concerning. Solution was this fan. Install is straight forward. A cutting template is included, which made the install super easy. I used my Dremel instead of a saw to cut the hole and just left the template in place when cutting (and when drilling my 4 holes). Unit popped right in, secured with nuts/screws. Packaging was nicer than expected for the product/price point. Quality is very presentable. I didn't not opt for the temp controller (yet), but may consider it in the future. The unit is plenty quiet on USB power, even at a high setting. I didn't feel the wall plug was necessary for my application and use my PC to power the fan. Overall, a nice quality product. I just installed it and haven't put it through its paces yet, but it appears this will be a worth while product. I will update after a few days using it.

works like a charm .. have coupled 2 of these with Infinity Controller for my music system cabinet ... much needed
