RE: Keeping things cool



I've been wondering about this too. My proposed solution was to mount some
PC fans in the back and experiment with the supply voltage until I couldn't
hear them. I've got some (mains voltage) fan trays from 19" rack cabinets
but these would be way too noisy.

If you wanted to get smart you could have the fans cut in & out based on the
in-cabinet temperature.

HTH,

Tim H.
