GDSTIME DC Axial Fans, 8025, 12V 2-Pin Fan

Installed this on back of ham radio to add more air, it worked as described.

Used this fan to fix my mini fridge. Worked great. Only had to swap the positive and negative leads in the connector. Almost silent.

Needed this fan to replace one in a small thermoelectric cooler belonging to a friend. The original fan was shot due to age and neglect. When I first looked at the cooler, the intake grill was caked with dust and lint, and the fan was bound up with the same. The fan would barely run, and made a lot of noise. I believe the bearing was going out, as cleaning the fan didn't help. So decided to replace the fan before it failed and caused the thermoelectric element to burn up. Found this fan at a very reasonable price, and the dimensions were a perfect fit. A little snip-snip, some solder, and heat-shrink tubing to cover the splices, and it was up and running, whisper-quiet. Good purchase.

Very quiet fan, but the airflow is a bit less than I was hoping for. Great fan for the price!

UPDATED: I was pleasantly surprised when the seller reached out to me after reading my review. I DID NOT contact the seller or initiate a return as the original review below shows, it was my fault for breaking the fan. Seller sent me a replacement as well as a fan grill even after I told them I wasn't expecting them to. A rare gem in customer service these days. The fan itself still has the same flaws but the customer service makes this a 5/5 experience ------------------ I know, I know, you aren't supposed to stick your fingers in spinning fans. I had plugged the fan in just to make sure it worked before I installed it in the final destination. It clipped my thumb and one of the fins shattered! Before the fin broke these fans were quite quiet. Now they make some noise because of the uneven cadence due to the missing fin. The fans work as advertised but I have never broken a fan before in the dozens that I have handled, by simply brushing the fin.

There is only things to like for this fan. It's quiet, and helps to cool the poor design of my Motorola radio. I use this to keep my TX (transmission) Motorola repeater side cool. For some strange reason Motorola decided to put the heatsink on the bottom, when it's known that heat rises. I'm sure there are many more uses for this cooling fan, You just need to find a way to utilize it. Would recommend.

I bought this on an amazon recommendation when i did a search for wine cooler fan replacement. I haven't had a chance to open up the back but after a power outage, both the temp gauges are just blinking which i think means either fans are out, or the controller board itself is out. So anyways, long story short, wine enthusiasts use a 90mm fan, where the outer square housing goes out to 92-93mm and are 12v 0.16A and usually like this fan are already wired to a plug that fits directly on the wine coolers controller board. So swapping out fans is realatively easy. These are mounted to a plastic housing that is mounted to heatsinks but was easy enough to get off. If your controller board is out, they do have videos on youtube that helps you try to debug if a few capacitors have gone out on the board which they think is the typical cause of failures. The controllers are old type with wire type resistors and caps, so you can desolder them relatively easily. Anyways, just wanted to say this didn't work for my wine enthusiast cooler, but is probably for maybe smaller coolers, so i'm still giving them a 5 as it's a quality looking fan which comes with screws, instructions, and a metal fan guard.

On the plus side, the fan works fine. FYI, if you are using the fan to replace a bad fan on a Rosewill external hard drive case, the connector is not compatible. You have to cut the connector off of the new fan wires and splice/solder the connector wires from the old fan so that it will plug into the board. It is not hard or long to do. You have to remove all 4 side panels and remove the HDD to change the fan. The fan is held in by 4 screws. It is pretty easy.

Slow fan.. not recommended
