Review: Useful but thats it - As expected but not the best build quality Review: A good, reliable fan that looks great - recommended! - I installed this fan in the back of a custom made arcade cabinet which needed to be kept cool. The fan is incredibly well made and very reliable, which I guess you'd expect given the price tag. Whilst there are cheaper alternatives that would presumably be just as effective, the AC Infinity fan simply cannot be beaten on looks which give you cabinet that professional appearance - to me that was an important part of my project so I was happy to pay a premium. The fan comes with a plastic template which helps with the positioning of drill holes, which was very useful indeed. The fan runs on a 5v power supply via the attached USB cable and is happy with either a 1amp or 2amp supply. The package also contains a UK plug with a USB connection if you don't plan to power it from an existing 5v powered device. ## Features - An ultra-quiet UL-certified fan system designed for cooling cabinets that requires minimal noise. - Features a multi-speed controller to set the fan’s speed to optimal noise and airflow levels. - Contains a CNC machined aluminum frame with a modern brushed black finish. - Powered by wall outlet or USB port, included Turbo Adapter increases performance by 25%. - Dimensions: 8.5 x 4.4 x 1.3 in. | Total Airflow: 52 CFM | Total Noise: 18 dBa | Bearings: Dual Ball ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B009CNR0I6 | | Air Flow Capacity | 104 Cubic Feet Per Minute | | Best Sellers Rank | #16,526 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #424 in Cabinet Hardware #551 in Cooling Fans | | Brand | AC Infinity | | Brand Name | AC Infinity | | Compatible Devices | AV Cabinet, Home Theater, Electronic Component | | Cooling Method | Air | | Cooling method | Air | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 1,320 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00854759004105 | | Included Components | AIRPLATE S5 | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 21.6L x 11.2W x 3.3H centimeters | | Item Weight | 680 g | | Manufacturer | AC Infinity | | Material Type | Metal | | Maximum Rotational Speed | 2000 RPM | | Model | AI-CFD80BA | | Noise Level | 18 Decibels | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Packs | 1 | | Part Number | AI-CFD80BA | | Power Connector Type | 3-Pin | | Power connector type | 3-Pin | | Product dimensions | 21.6L x 11.2W x 3.3H centimeters | | UPC | 854759004105 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Voltage | 240 Volts | | Warranty Description | 1 year warranty covers all defects | | Wattage | 1.9 watts | ## Product Details - **Brand:** AC Infinity - **Power connector type:** 3-Pin - **Product dimensions:** 21.6L x 11.2W x 3.3H centimeters - **Voltage:** 240 Volts - **Wattage:** 1.9 watts ## Images ![AIRPLATE S5, Quiet Cooling Fan System 8" with Speed Control, for Home Theater AV Cabinets - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61-txOT8s2L.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Is this an exhaust fan or an input fan. (Does it draw air out or push air in?)** A: You shouldn't need powered fans drawing air in. If you have the fans blowing warm air out near the top, you can drill some ports for the cool air to be drawn in from the bottom. on the other side of the enclosure. **Q: How much air does these blow? I want to use it as a window fan to blow out hot air from inside the room.** A: I did this, with 4 fans and the controller, in a high-up-near ceiling casement window to remove that 'stuck' layer of hot air up there. Took some fiddling to reverse the airflow and add a filler plate, but it went in very cleanly. With a top-down bottom-up cellular shade, it can either blow air directly outside, or down the inside of the closed window and out the bottom of the shade when the AC is on to circulate air so the AC unit can 'grab it' better. Pretty amazed at how well it works for both purposes. It does not move a huge amount of air; didn't expect it to - but it is nearly dead quiet from 10ft away (it's 15 ft up), the temp sensor makes it 'set and forget', and all the supplied cabling was just long enough where I needed it to be. Very happy with it - and an awesome product. **Q: Are the fans quiet?** A: At 1 meter I read 58dB on my SPL meter. That is not quiet. It's very annoying in my theater. Luckily they are standard 120mm fans. I'm going to buy better fans and replace them. **Q: Can this be added to a setup with an existing Airplate T7?** A: Yes it can I bought both the T7 and S7 4 fans and one thermostatic controller. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Useful but thats it *by E***D on 3 July 2026* As expected but not the best build quality ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A good, reliable fan that looks great - recommended! *by J***C on 20 July 2015* I installed this fan in the back of a custom made arcade cabinet which needed to be kept cool.

The install was easy, and was made even easier with the included plastic template. I found that the low setting is quiet enough to leave on all the time.
