Oust Fans

[CaptainSaint]

I know back in the day the Oust fans were the cat's meow for coolerdor/wineador and they've since been off the shelves for a few years. Has anyone found anything that perform even remotely close to these and are available to the general public??

Would imagine you could rig a few computer fans off a micro usb connection. Probably work like a charm

were people just leaving the on all time?

If so, something can be done quite easily with computer fans. Even with batteries if needed.

They had a setting that allowed for on and off (intervals)

I said this in another post but easiest thing for me for a while was laptop stand with fan, usb out to plug, timer on plug.

They sell fan control timers on newegg and other sites as well

IIRC the oust fans would run for 5 minutes every hour. They use the D cell batteries and actually go through batteries pretty quickly.

If youre opening your cooler every so often (maybe once every week or so), there is no need to have a fan. Just opening the lid will allow for enough circulation

i appreciate the thought, but the return address on the package is only a temporary one...its set up to expire as soon as their system sees that the package has been recieved by you.

What kind of spy are you...will the package self destruct after opening too?!? Lol

Oust fans were perfect. Had 2 but my baby bro got hold of them some years back. Anyone seen a viable alternative that doesn't involve running wires and external timers?
