Coolerguys "Cabcool 1201" Single 120mm Base Kit (w/ option choice)
Your choice of Bracket, Fan and Power / Control type
This is our best selling size of cooling kit, 120mm refers to the fan size edge to edge, they are 25mm deep.
The actual bracket size depends on which type you select.
We have sold thousands of these kits over the past 5 years and received great customer reviews & feedback.
This unit can be used in a variety of places from cabinets or closets to RVs or even boats.
The main idea with these kits is to slowly move the air from a location where heat is accumulating to help maintain a temperature that is safe for your equipment.
Depending on your needs we offer pre-set thermal controllers that are plug and play, LED display controllers that are programmable so you can monitor how the fans are performing and control when they power on/off. If you want something less extravagant we have a standard manual controller as well as USB versions that will power with the device that is home to the USB port, the ultimate in ease, truly plug and play.
Quiet:
All of our kits come with our own brand of extremely quiet fans that we have specially designed to work with our power supplies, controllers and cables. We have made them so you don't have to worry about manually controlling them or messing with a speed controller.
Also all of our fans are dual ball bearing, despite claims made by other manufacturers regarding their own bearing or fan technology dual ball bearing is the defacto standard as the most reliable on the market, in 30C environments they are expected to last 67,000 hours which is over 7 years of 24/7 use.
Please be aware that the hotter their environment the lower their life however we will still guarantee all of our fans for 3 years, if they happen to fail in that time we will replace them free of charge.
Easy to Install:
This is a do it yourself kit (we do offer them pre-assembled for a small fee, see below) but it is not very difficult.
We include nuts, bolts, screws and anything else needed to fully assemble them as well as attach them to wherever you are installing it, we also include cable ties to help you manage the placement of wiring.
The thing which takes the most time and effort is cutting a hole for the assembled kit however with the proper tools and measurement it is not all that difficult, we give the cutout dimensions for all of our kits online as well as on the included instructions.
Below we have included a general instruction worksheet and a quick video to give you a feeling of how they are assembled and installed.
If have have additional questions feel free to contact us using the link at the top of our site.
We have set up all of our kit pages with drop down menus so you can order only what you need. The first menu is where you choose your bracket type. A description and picture of each type is below. Then from the second menu choose your power supply and controller type. These are matched up so as to give you the choice of ordering a simple kit with just the fan all the way up to our programmable LED thermal controller. The additional costs are listed in the drop down menu and will show up in real time above the add to cart button.
