Meegopad T2 Fan case
offgrid
Description
Case for Meegopad T2 PCB, 80x80x10 mm Fan, mini switch and wifi antenna
This case solves the two major problems of the otherwise brilliant stick PCs:
1) Overheating causing thermal shutdown
2) poor Wifi performance.
Results:
-Core temperatures always below 40°C
-WiFi throughput ca 4x better than original
-No noticeable fan noise (34 dBA at 0.5m instead of 33dBA in my office)
