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.desertcart.com/gp/product/B012CL2V3I/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Review: Expensive, but does exactly what it is supposed to, and is utterly reliable - 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. ## Features - Preset temperature trigger with corded thermal probe, for USB fans and devices. - Also controls up to six AC Infinity Cabinet and USB Fans, see below for compatibility. - Programming includes four pre-set temperature triggers as well as an ON and OFF mode. - Features a surface mount design, with a 6-ft precision waterproof temperature probe. - Can be powered by USB or Outlet (USB wall adapter not included) ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B078PY8L9F | | Best Sellers Rank | #31,479 in Kitchen & Dining ( See Top 100 in Kitchen & Dining ) #139 in Funnels | | Brand | AC Infinity | | Brand Name | AC Infinity | | Color | Black | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 1,376 Reviews | | Included Components | item | | Item Highlight | Designed for Computer, AV Cabinet, Home Theater Cooling | | Item Weight | 0.27 g | | Manufacturer | AC Infinity | | Material | Aluminum | | Material Type | Aluminum | | Model Number | AC-PCA1 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Part Number | ACPCA1 | | UPC | 819137020351 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** AC Infinity - **Color:** Black - **Item Weight:** 0.27 g - **Material:** Aluminum - **UPC:** 819137020351 ## Images ![AC Infinity Controller 1, Thermal Trigger for AIRPLATE, MULTIFAN, USB Fans - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51Mj8p87gTL.jpg) ![AC Infinity Controller 1, Thermal Trigger for AIRPLATE, MULTIFAN, USB Fans - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61tqDuMgk6L.jpg) ![AC Infinity Controller 1, Thermal Trigger for AIRPLATE, MULTIFAN, USB Fans - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61K9m9BzyOL.jpg) ![AC Infinity Controller 1, Thermal Trigger for AIRPLATE, MULTIFAN, USB Fans - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61zG8G0sIXL.jpg) ![AC Infinity Controller 1, Thermal Trigger for AIRPLATE, MULTIFAN, USB Fans - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61+YB9Sn1uL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: How do you connect multiple fans to it with only one USB port?** A: Each of their fans come with a splitter already wired in for the multifan series **Q: Is there a similar controller that I can manually set the temp?

Initially I thought the trigger was faulty because after cycling once it would power off and remain off. BUT I put a meter on it and found that my cheap USB power supply voltage was dropping to ~2v when the load cycled on, so the trigger would power down. I upgraded my power supply and the thermal trigger now works exactly as described. AC Infinity's tech support was responsive and helpful. ## Frequently Bought Together - AC Infinity Controller 1, Thermal Trigger for AIRPLATE, MULTIFAN, USB Fans and Devices.
