Function:
Increases the console’s fan speed by 50% of demand.
Detail:
In a standard, unmodified, console the fan will typically spin at
about 20% of full speed when cold. With this module fitted it will
actually spin at 30% of full speed.
As it warms up and more cooling is required the console will ask
the fan to spin faster; the module will continuously follow this
demand, always adding 50%. So, if the console demands (say) 40%
spin speed the resulting rate with the module fitted will be 60%
of full speed.
In use, because the initial fan speed (and hence the airflow) is
greater than normal, the console will take longer to warm to a
temperature that requires additional cooling, and when it does it
will be cooled more quickly, thereby decreasing the thermal
stress on the APU which is a major cause of console failure.
