Fan cooling

Post by Marty33 » Thu Aug 03, 2017 4:44 am

Hello all.

I found old topic for Tiny fan cool (created by @Fleder).

But now, impossible for me to found this fan.

I'm restricted to 5mm thickness maximum.

Btw, anyone use a tiny fan here ?

Big thanks all

I'm planning to use a fan, the one shipped by Kite and his SAIO.
I want to overclock the Pi zero W just for fun lol.
I am also planning to build a home made radiator with copper plates and high conductive thermal pad.

For now i cannot tell you more because i'm still waiting for Kite to ship the goods (end September)
And i will do a post with step by step installation.

Just to let you know, Kite's fan is a blower (the air is thrown to the side) so this is perfect for my plans. Also, it is 17mm square and only 3mm high which is also great for my plans. To finish, thoose fans are incredibly expensive comparing to their size :? And this is not funny

If they were less expensive, i should have put 2 inside my build but i abandoned this idea (cost around 15$ each)

Final word, those fans are really hard to find ! Even in China
