cooling fans offered on eBay

[Jadran]

what are your thoughts on those chinese cooling fans offered on web.
they look tempting to me,, cheap, adjustable, easy to mount, nicely designed.. Im about to go ahead and get one of those 6 x fan fixtures but before I do so like to hear some experiences, and possibly recommendation..

most important questin is how noisy / silent they are..?

Are you referring to something like a PC fan? Like a computer fan used to ventilate your computer? I'd vote no considering you can get a MUCH better product for <10 from Amazon or Newegg with a respectable reputation.

If the cost difference was so great like it is between black boxes and 'other' companies, then I'd say it might be worth it.

For small components you're asking for trouble if you get the 0.03 option from eBay.

I had one of the 5 fan units for my Biocube 29. They work pretty well, but the bearings on the fans went during the second summer of use. So they will get noisy a little over a year of use.
