thermaltake thunderblade
I hate to state the obvious about thermaltake case fans, but I am still quite peeved by this, and this is a good place to post this kinda thing 8]
I got 2 Thermaltake Thunderblade 1926A fans a week ago after seeing their decently rated cfm/dbA rating. The company rates them at 21 dbA and 78 CFM. They are easily double that at 12V. Even at 7V they are horrendously loud.
Oh well. There goes some of my meager Americorps stipend for the month.

what now?
I just tried to submit a complaint to them via their website, but the "submit" button doesn't seem to be sending the message. Great. This is the only contact method listed on the site. And I, unfortunately, threw out the packaging which probably had the address of the company on it.
the only Thermaltake fans that can hope to live up to the cfm/dB ratings on the website are the Hong Sheng 80/92/120mm A9225L12S, A8025AL12S and F129025SH (92mm Everflow) fans
You would be hard pushed to find them in any retail outlets cos all of the above fans are oem only and ship with Tt cases.
The thunderblade fans seem like a waste of money imho. just cos they are normal led fans.

While he's at it, he could sue the whole industry. They all lie...qviri wrote:Sue/threaten to sue them for false advertising?
Maybe at least write them an email to let them know you don't appreciate being treated like that.
But he would lose. I bet the specs didn't say 21db from 1 meter, so they weren't actually lying.

Yep, just said 21db. Drat!Erssa wrote:While he's at it, he could sue the whole industry. They all lie...qviri wrote:Sue/threaten to sue them for false advertising?
