Went to turn my computer on the other day, and this units Screen was completely blank. The back light works but the LCD itself has apparently failed.even checked to see if a thermister was crossed over, but no. all the cables and PCB''s looks fine.
It also spooled my fans down to a dangerous RPM when it failed.
So i had this unit for about 8 months.(i posted the first review a week after i purchased it)
It worked great while it worked. it may be something i did, but i highly doubt it as it just sat in the 5.25" bay for those months non abused or mistreated. All the fans connected were .15-.25A So no overload there.
It''s a good controller, Just Buyer Beware that it may die.
Excellent buy

Controls 3 fan speeds and displays 3 tempatures. Does not show the Fan RPM''s. Alarm Temp can only be set in C not F. but does display C or F tempatures. Fan speeds are also Adjustable on the fly and has a indicator showing the set speed (1-4) Has a handy thermometer gauge showing how close to max temp you are. east to set. is a True dark Blue glow to match your fans and such. My unit Did Not include a Speaker which is odd. Didn''t have one soldered onto the board either.
