AC Infinity AIRPLATE S7, Quiet Cooling Fan System 12" with Speed Control, for Home Theater AV Cabinets

Attention Tent OwnersThis is my third AC infinity product. I have previous purchased two ac infinity intake/outtake exhaust fans which btw are great and still in use one year later.My purchase: Ac infinity dual fan wallplate/airplate with the switch non-controller version.My application: pull cool air from the room into a 3x3 to keep the plants inside at optimal temps. Normally temps inside are acceptable at 80-82 degrees, but in flower I want to get several degrees lower to simulate fall/harvest.Why I needed it? I use an LED that at its highest settings putting off quite a bit of heat into a small space and although a great LED, too big for the space (bigger isn’t always better) so I was having difficulty dialing in temps even in my mostly automated small space.Full disclosure - I’ve purchased more than my fair share of fans over the years from amazon and other big box retailers. Some I still use, some shelved, others recycled or returned. Rather than setup a proper intake using another ac infinity intake I went ahead and tried fan after fan propped against the side of the tent with the flap open to force cool air in. Btw the inexpensive Amazon basic floor fan pushes a lot of air, but I digress. And This method works, but adds additional noise and light leakage both in and out of the tent (night/day). As you know, this is a problem and will result in confused plants or worse, herms. That said, I’m still lazy, seeking the easiest cheapest way and I’ve been so pleased with my other ac infinity products (I decided on this unit after measuring my tents side mesh window which was close enough) it was an easy decision to take a flyer on this dual fan airplate.This fits my 3x3 bottom mesh vent exceptionally well. I didn’t even have to use the included screws or zip ties that’s how snug it is. Perfect even. I simply used a boxcutter to cut out the mess in my tent and forcefully pushed the plate into place. This admittedly took some extra elbow grease, but once i got it in, I’d say its the middle cup of porridge, just right.This airplate on its highest setting I am able to keep my homes air set to 70-73 and allow for cool fresh air to enter the airplate/tent and force the hot air generated from my LED out of the top. My ac infinity outtake fan is pulling that hot air set on low with a controller (setting 2) through an oversized filter from another company to filter any smell (none) back into this spare bedroom.Added some pics. I opted to go with the non-controller version of the dual fan airplate as I have two other intake/outtake fans (ac infinity) with the controllers and thought it would be overkill. The airplate has a small switch on it with 4 settings. Off, low, medium & high. On high, it’s quiet and mostly unnoticeable and pushes enough air into tent to keep the perfect temps! Surprised me for an airplate that it was able to push as much air in as it does.Pros-perfect size for my application-quiet even on its highest setting-always on feature (using a smart app controlled outlet to turn off and on)-moves more air than expected-great engineering as usualConsNot sure it’s a con, but it would have been better in white rather than black and without the controller I don’t know if it was possible to push even more air in on possibly higher settings. White was unavailable.That’s it, hope this helped some folks.Thank you AC Infinity

The media could not be loaded. Works great just got to know what size you need and go from there. Very easy to install it’s dummy proof!Needed it because my PlayStation was getting extremely hot sense it was in a closed off cabinet. Would need to leave the doors open for air to flow but was annoying so this helped now it no longer hot at all ! Quite fan for the most part can’t complain. Money well spent. Need to make sure you get the same fan size if you get two. Also need an in and out flow. So two are a must when buying singles or doubles. The loud noise is the back thing on my Ps5. Overall great product hasn’t failed me

AC Infinity has always done right by me and this is no exception. I bought this fan because I installed a mini fridge in a kitchen cabinet. I had drilled out some ventilation holes but they weren't doing enough to get the fridge to work properly. I installed this fan and it did the trick.The quality of their products is second to none. Even the packaging gives you a feeling of quality and it's just cardboard. The product itself looks great and works just as described. It comes with a template to cut out any of the wall or cabinet where you are installing it.The fans run ultra quiet and are very smooth. It comes with a USB or power adapter. I opted for the power adapter to make sure that it was getting the correct amount of power to make sure that it was working as it needed to. I have the fan on high and you can't hear it at all. Moves plenty enough air for my needs.There aren't any cons to this product. The price is extremely reasonable so don't even bother looking anywhere else.

Purchased the dual 80 model for a small cabinet where my 1050w AVR is positioned. The cabinet and AVR used to get hot at mid-high volume and I had to keep the glass door half open even though I had multiple holes drilled in the back/top (cabinet is 24x10x19 inches) siting on the floor. I was thinking of getting the 120 model given the heat generated from the AVR but then decided to go with the 80 model given the relative size of then to the cabinet height (about 10' or 25cm).The fan was shipped and received fast and the grill/cover looks great, like mentioned in many reviews, I also think the grill is safer than the other models because there no chance for even thin wires inside the cabinet to jam the fan, the nice appearance made me feel good about my purchase but I realize that the fan will not be visible except when I pull out the AVR for maintenance or when showing friends how I solved the heat problem common with AVRs sitting in a small cabinet . The fan also sounded very quite when I tested it before installation. The USB wire is long and the charger is small and nice looking (2x1.5x0.5 inches)After installing the fan, I was pleasantly surprised how it kept the cabinet cool even when I cranked the volume at high and the door was closed. The cabinet was cooler then it is when the AVR is in standby and the fan is off. I connected the fan to the USB socket available on the AVR (the AVR USB is 5v, 1amp max., the fan is 5v, 1.1w so it should not draw more than 250mAmp on average) I bought a thermal sensor but I realized I will not need it afterwards, the fan turns on/off when the receiver turns on/off.The reason I gave it 4 stars is because first, the it did not have a template to allow me to cut the back of the cabinet accordingly, I had to take measurements and make on myselft which too some time to ensure I make a clean cut. Second, the USB wire (it has two connections as shown in photos) was getting in the way when installing ( I wanted the wire to be inside the cabinet so I can plug it in the AVR and it is designed for the wires to be in the back) i solved the issue by cutting gasket from hard foam to push the fan a little outside inside the cabinet and allow me to keep the wires inside. My cabinet was almost attached to the wall (with 1.5 inch space from the wall) and could not move it easily because there are panels on top of it where the TV is installed.Finally I was able to hear the fan when the room is quite and I think that was because the air was hitting the wall and it was amplified by the panels because you can hear it when you are beside the cabinet more then from inside the cabinet.Overall I am very happy with the purchase realizing my application would had similar challenges with any other model. The fans system does an excellent job to keep the cabinet cool with very little noise and is well designed. The only thing is it lacks a template. Would also be nice to see gaskets available for raised installation.
