AC Infinity Controller 1, Thermal Trigger for AIRPLATE, MULTIFAN, USB Fans and Devices. Computer, AV Cabinet, Home Theater Cooling.

I hooked the cooling fans on my entertainment center to this thermostat and works great

Just what I needed to control a cabinet fan hooked up to my xbox x. On the lower settings fan kicks on after the system starts to get a heavier load from gaming but not under light loads like playing a DVD or streaming Netflix. After I shut the system off fan continues to run a few more minutes until cabinet cools below the setpoint and fan powers off.

Some background - I've been using AC Infinity products for 5 years (as of April 2024). They're great because the build great products that excel for the market they're intended to be used for. While the price is higher than their competitors, it is worth it.I purchased this temperature sensor for a niche purpose. I have a La-Z-Boy double recliner with a built-in armrest storage unit w/ AC outlets inside. It also has dual trays which are perfect for laptops. But I feared putting a 250 watt gaming laptop power supply in the storage unit due to the heat that it makes.To combat the heat, I purchased The AC Infinity Controller 1, and connected it to a set of dual 40mm fans. I also modified the back of the storage unit to accommodate the fans and am exhausting the air out of the back of the storage unit, instead of blowing air into it. This design is cool and efficient, and the Controller handles turning the fans on and off as desired. I also appreciate they programmed hysteresis into the controller so it doesn't constantly turn on and off at the target temperature. I don't have the # in front of me but I want to say it's 2-3 degrees F below the selected temperature.I'm incredibly happy with its design. It has worked as desired for about 2 months now, and I anticipate it will continue to do so for the foreseeable future.

This is a great thermal temperature control trigger unit it's very efficient and accurate as per the temperature settings You set. It's also very small tiny it's approximately "1" W X 2 1/2 inches long much smaller than the specs provided here on the product page information. This little unit does a great job controlling my AC infinity fan that I'm using to keep a Wall plug power distributor that I have plugged into a surge protector cool from overheating. I use the digital version for my other AC infinity fans that are keeping my Denon AVR unit cool. Both of these thermal temperature control units do a fantastic job controlling the fans by the selected temperature settings it's a great investment to keep your expensive electronics cool.If you're debating about purchasing this product or any product from AC Infinity please be assured that they have very fine reliable products that are worth the money you pay for them, they're all of great build quality that's made to last. I highly recommend this thermal temperature control unit 100%.

Love this fan, it runs in my cabinet and cools off my NAS drive, router, and switch. The thermostat is a bit slow to respond and it drops 5 degrees before shutting off. The bottom line is it keeps the temp at a safe point, just test to see which setting to choose to have it kick on at the temp you want. The number on the temp control is not what it kicks on at, because you can place the sensor close or far away from the hot item.

My AV receiver is located on the top shelf of a wooden built-in media cabinet. I have no doors on the cabinet, and any heat emanating from my AV equipment must vent through the front. My receiver sits on the top shelf and has about 4 inches of clearance above the cooling vents. However, heat used to get trapped between the top of the receiver and the top of the cabinet. Not anymore though! I placed a AC Infinity MULTIFAN S2 on top of the receiver vent and it blows all heat out the front of the cabinet. What I like about this fan is (i) it is well made, (ii) it has insulated rubber feet to isolate itself acoustically from the receiver, (iii) it has three fan speeds, (iv) its a blower configuration that blows the air forward vs. upwards, and best of all (v) it is very quiet. In the "Low" setting - which is sufficient for my needs - the fan's noise level is barely a whisper and cannot be heard across the room when all music is off. The fan is powered by USB or optional AC adapter. To mine I added a compatible thermal switch (the AC INFINITY CONTROLLER 1, Thermal Trigger) that activates the fan only when heat build-up exceeds a set point set by me. Once the receiver cools down after turning it off, the thermal switch turns the fan off via a small sensor placed on top of the cooling vents. The fan and thermal switch are connected by USB, and installation is straightforward and very easy. I highly recommend the fan, AC adapter, and thermal switch - the link for the fan follows:https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B012CL2V3I/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Got this for fans for a computer that it’s in a tight spot and set the temperature with fans and keeps it cool then turns the fans off.
