Yate Loon Case Fans

Hi fella's and lass's, does anyone have any first hand experience of these fans? OK, I could go Google it but that's not the same as hearing it from the horses mouth so to speak. Are they any good? How reliable are they? How quiet are they? How long do you think they'll last? Anything you can think of that'll help me come to a decision as to whether to buy some or not. Or should I consider some other brand? Scythe, Akasa etc. Thanks peeps.

I'll can tell you one thing, they must be damn popular as I can't find a single stockist with stock in the UK. It's like trying to find Unicorn shit in Lossiemouth!

Well, finally managed to track a stockist down in Wales who actually had some, and at a good price of £5.08 each for a 140mm fan. So ordered a few!

I'll tell you what! Those Yate Loons are damn quiet! You wouldn't think I had six of them running in this case!

Depends.

They have a lot of different models.

They do run pretty quiet, and they are DANG cheap. I'm running 2 of them in my rig right now. They are very popular over at XS, especially with watercoolers and big builds. When you need 10+ fans paying $20 a fan can be hard
