Cooling C11 Edge HD with laptop fan

[rodrigol]

Now that summer has kicked in seriously, I've been having issues with cooling my Edge HD and apart from vents and fans in the obsy, I'm trying a laptop cooler I found on Amaz**. It has a temperature gauge which showed 29 C and after about 30 minutes it showed 27, which is close to ambient here at the moment. Mounting it on the Edge vents was interesting but the following experimental holder (cheap car smartphone holder) seems to work. Better isolation around the C11 vent is required (will try to work on that if the fan is still working after a week). The Amaz** item number is B014FY8N7S but I want to state here I do not have any relation to the item maker/seller whatsoever!

I will confirm later the durability of this fan if it fails. Otherwise, assume it is doing what it's meant to be doing.

Enjoy!

very bespoke i like it & if it does the job thats great, its really a shame you carn't use a cat cooler on the edge scopes, as they work very well indeed!
