Cooler? You Bet!Feb 23, 2010
I wasn't really sure that this item would completely meet my needs, but after installing this in our new flat panel television case we are very pleased with it. temp/stat works great, Our cabinet has glass doors and every thing is completely enclosed inside of cabinet,and the cooling keeps every thing cool. Cable Box, DVR, etc. I actually installed it on the side of the case and it looks factory. Would I buy this again? Yes. Is it a little expensive? not after you consider the cost of finding all the parts your self.
A good cooling kitJan 04, 2010
The kit takes a few minutes to assemble but is reasonable. The instructions are adequate but be careful to install the fan in the flow direction you need for your particular need. I installed mine to move air out of the cabinet. There are arrows on the side of each fan that identify flow direction. My set up is in an enclosed wood/glass cabinet with an Onkyo TX-SR805 A/V receiver, an original release PS3 system, and a DishNetwork 722 VIP HDDVR. Needless to say the cabinet gets really hot when the equipment pieces are on.
The kit fans are quite and do a good job moving hot air out of the cabinet. The thermal probe allows you to plug in the fans to automatically manage cabinet air temperatures. The fan turns on automatically when the temp is hot and turns fans off when temps cool down. This is good for me because I set my DVR to record a lot of kid shows during the day for my boys while I'm at work. Also, now I don't have to keep the cabinet glass door open and worry that my little 4 year old will run into it. In my opinion the thermal controller makes this set up very useful.
Great productJan 01, 2010
Great product has been going strong for over a year now. No issues whatsoever. 120mm fans are very quiet!

Works like a charmNov 24, 2009
I have an entertainment stand that is all enclosed with glass doors. There is no ventilation anywhere within the cabinet, and I have an Xbox 360, cable box, receiver, and modem/router all running within the confined space. I noticed upon playing Xbox that the temps inside the cabinet skyrocketed, to the point of red rings and equipment overheating and acting funny. Well, not even 6 months after purchasing the console, the Xbox fried, so I knew I had to add some sort of cooling product to alleviate the problem or else I would fry my new Xbox in another 6 months. Enter this product from [...].
The product is exactly what I needed. Using a jigsaw, I cut out the opening in the back panel of the entertainment stand (the thin wood that covers the back... this would be a tough install on a solid thick backing). One tip I learned is that you have to cut out a rectangle a little smaller than the supplied panel cover. I tried to just cut the circles out for the fans, but this made it way too hard to install easily. I went back and cut the full rectangle shape out and voila, went together as easily as everyone else's reviews said.
It took me about an hour to put together and cleanup. I turned on the Xbox, receiver, cable box and modem and played continously for 2 hours. Normally, the Xbox would sound like a 747 taking off at this point, but no, it was very quiet. I opened the glass doors to feel inside. What normally felt like an oven (no joke, probably usually 120 degrees plus) was now very comfortable and only felt slightly warmer than room temp. This thing works! In addition, it is truly silent. I just cannot hear it. The Xbox is way louder than the fans, even when the xbox is running low speed. In all, these work as advertised and aren't terribly difficult to install for anyone handy with some power tools. It will certainly cool your components when the furniture design is a dud to begin with. It does seem pricey, but I do believe it will lengthen the life of my components.

Great Product.Aug 25, 2009
Fan kit worked great. I had my components in a built in cabinet. My Apple TV generated so much heat it caused the glue to go soft on the lamination of the shelf and caused the lamination to lift. Research several options for cooling and decided on this kit.
Fan kit was easy to install. Kit was only a little more expensive than trying to piece the parts yourself and it went together easily. Cut the hole in the side as directed and installed. Thermostat control works great so fans are not always running. After three days and no more heat issues.
Highly recommend.
