AXIAL 8038, Quiet Muffin Fan, 120V AC 80mm x 38mm Low Speed, UL-Certified for DIY Cooling Ventilation Exhaust Projects

It looks like a well-made fan. I for this one even though it's a little wider than my old cheap fan because it's supposed to be quite. It is some as the other one was going bad and making more noise than normal. It's not as quiet as I had expected though. It is in the garage, even though we walk by it every day. It's used in my NVR lockbox mounted up on the wall. It was one fan on the side blowing out. So I replaced it and added a second one. So the same side is blowing out, and the one on the other side is blowing in. 2 fans now so double the noise of 1 fan I assume. I'll see how well it works like this. There are 2 direction arrows on it. One shows airflow direction, the other shows what way the fan is going to spin. While the Plug has a fat end so it can only plug in one way. It really wouldn't matter as the fan will s[in the same direction even if you could turn it around. I ended up cutting the plugs off anyway so I could directly wire them up to my Temp controller I have mounted on my case. When it hits 80F it will power them both ON and when it's below that they both go off. These fans are covered by a 30-day free return policy and a TWO YEAR hassle-free warranty. They cover all costs including shipping for returns and exchanges and warranty claims. At least they is what they say as I haven't put that to the test as my fans are brand new. One issue I did have is when I powered it up, one fan wasn't running. I stuck a screwdriver into the fan to see if it would spin, and it did but was making a bad noise. It ended up tightening a couple of screws a little too light putting it into just enough of a bind. I started to loosen a couple up a bit and the noise went away and all is good now. Don't panic if this happens to you. Simple fix!!!

Nice quiet fan I set next to my Motorola modem/router to keep it cool; nothing fancy, it just sits next to my modem and keeps air circulating. I've had it running continuously for over a year without any issues. I occasionally use a can of compressed air to clear the dust from the case and fan blades. I also like that this fan has a plug and is ready to use. Great product.

This is a great little fan for my keezer that I built. The typcial chest freezer with wood collar (8 inch riser), as you know the temperature difference from the bottom of the freezer to the top of the freezer can be 10-15F difference. Well that's enough to have your exposed beer lines foam up. Well this fan, mounted at the top, blowing air down circulates the cold air around to keep it an even temperature. This fan is quiet, and I specially chose the low speed model as my keezer was going to be inside the house, I wanted to keep noise down. This fan pushes more than enough air per minute and it's energy draw is so little that I can run it non-stop without worry. I will highly recommend you plug this fan into a GFCI outlet or GFCI adapter outlet (adapter outlet on amazon - less than 13 bucks). Because the inside of a keezer can be humid, it's important to protect yourself. What the description doesn't tell you is that the power cord is removable. That is a huge bonus! It plugs right into the fan. Note, the diameter of the plug is approximately 9/16" but I needed a 7/8" hole to fit the plug (not ac part) through the keezer wall. A piece of cork plugged the hole with the wire passing through it. Overall the fan is solid, looks nice and comes all the bolts, nuts, rubber washers and good documentation. I would highly recommend this fan if you're looking for a fan that is AC powered.

Brought the temperature down in our DISH Hopper cabinet 10 to 18 degrees. System seems to be running better! The fan is very small and very quiet.

I bought this fan because I have a Dynaco vacuum tube preamp that I just love to listen music through and it has a tendency to get real hot because I have it inside of cabinet with very little air circulating around it. One time it shut down and I am pretty sure it was do to the heat. I bought this fan to cool off the chassis. My first issue was whether or not to put the fan grill on or leave it bare. After a couple times of sticking my finger into the fan (which does not hurt the fingers but will eventually damage the propeller) I put the grill on. However the bolts are bit long and stick through the other side so I had to cut them with bolt cutters and then file them and it was a hassle - but I did it. Then I had to figure out the best place to put the fan. I put it on top of the unit and that worked well to cool it, but the noise was a little audible and so I just placed it behind the preamp, blowing the air out the back of the cabinet. That seems to work very well and the fan noise is barely audible to these 60 year old ears. Overall, this is a good fan. A smaller and quieter one would have been nice, but those often don't come with a built-in 120 volt plug. They require a separate 12 volt source which I did not want to hassle with.

Put this AC Infinity muffin fan in my 3D printer enclosure about two months ago and it's been running non-stop since. I needed something to vent ABS fumes without sounding like a jet engine, and this thing is genuinely quiet - can barely hear it over the printer itself. Moves enough air that my enclosure doesn't turn into a sauna but it's not so aggressive that it messes with bed temps. The 120V AC is nice because I just wired it to a smart plug instead of dealing with DC adapters and extra cables. Been printing almost daily and it just keeps chugging along. The low speed is actually perfect for this application since you don't want crazy airflow disrupting prints. Solid choice if you need ventilation without the noise.

This is a well-engineered product with the features that will insure long life in my application. Dual ball bearings, diecast aluminum frame, quality electrical connections, and high quality metal grills and related fasteners. Very happy.

The temperature was around 150F, this fan just laying on top of the vent, pulling air, dropped the temperature to 111F I'd say that's a good fan for the money. Got a higher price router? This will extend it's life. Noise level is low but not silent of course. Rated to work for 7.6 years (67000 hours). Dual ball bearing motor and metel frame is great. This is not some weak USB fan, it's a real utility class device.

Sufrí mucho porque mi caminadora al calentarse el motor se apagaba repentinamente marcando error. Supuse que era el protector de calor del motor así que agregué este pequeño y silencioso ventilador en la caminadora y funciona de maravilla.

bought the fan to replace a unit on a very expensive specialized machine for cutting automotive and high security keys. most other fans had the wrong hole configuration or measurement, and a computer case fan is 12V ac which would require a bridge and voltage regulator or an additional power supply. this unit came very quickly and was a direct swap, took me 5 mins to install and is low enough speed to run continuously or not be excessively loud but fast enough to adequately cool the workhorse machine it resides in. looked very high quality, was sent exactly the product in the picture, and it was the size described in link. very happy with the product. may buy another for a different model machine that takes the same fan or to have as a spare. very happy with purchase.

アンプを冷やすのに使ってます。メーカーの設計ですから冷やす事もないと思いつつあまりの発熱に心配になり、これを購入しました。ステレオですのでファンの音が苦にならない物を選びました 一つ購入し良かったものですから後日もう一つ購入しました。

夏を迎えてPioneer/XC-HM86の排熱対策に購入。 重視したのは静音、耐久性、サイズ。 PC用などあれこれ探索してこれにたどり着いた。写真は仮置き。 低風速だがラック内の排気には十分。驚いたのは静かさ。エアコンの最弱風の送風音に紛れてほとんど気にならず。 モーターも見かけより重く、しっかりとした作りと耐久性も期待できそう。 この型式はAC100v仕様だが、連続運転でもさしたる電気代にはなりそうにない。 このスペックが千円未満で手に入るとはC/P最高かと。オーディオ用にお薦めしたい。

Nice quiet fan
