Whats the coldest you have gotten the tower? I'm having a problem getting it past about 44. I've had it plugged in for 2 days now, does it take some time before it gets cold? Also i've heard some people talking about putting a fan inside, where would i...

Never measured the temperature; I just put a keg inside and it cools the beer perfectly. Are you measuring with a keg in or out? It's designed to work with a keg in it, and the keg itself will help retain the cold because it's metal...

The internal fan is broken, same with mine. Opened it up and its a cheap computer fan. I replaced it for 4 dollars at a computer store and it works. If you're under warranty, send it back or take the risk and replace the fan.Good luck

Haha, make sure the curiosity doesn't get the better of you and make you open it up for a tour. I am also wondering how its managing heat. My guess is the traditional copper piping with aluminum "fin" style heatsink attached behind the LED chips with the fans blowing across.

Let it cool for 20 minutes and then push the thermal reset button. It is an unlabeled button below the power switch on my unit. I have only activated it once...after two hours of continuous use on cedar logs up to 18 inches in diameter. Unit restarted after cool down but shutdown again after 30 minutes. I was quite worried at that point but it ran the next day and a dozen times subsequently without incident. It is a beast!

Hey, Chris; The answers to both of your questions are pretty straight forward... 1) My case came with a sheet stating the capacity per channel, (I THINK it was 40 Watts, but am not sure). My head was five Watts over specs, but I do not go max 24/ 7 and I have not even smelled hot plastic. Of course, there has to be adequate cooling air available. 2) The case is designed pretty well, and the rest of your protection will come from the care you take while you install the hardware.Hope this helps you out... now I will get back to waiting for the s**w to melt up here in "Eerie", Pennsylvania. (It is a censored four letter word to me!)

I'm using mine on a patio as a slide in under an outdoor kitchen cabinet. Make sure you have about 4 inches around for air flow. This unit has the condenser built in the left and right sides and dissipats the heat unlike a fan blowing air across the condenser on your home frig. What I did do is take the 1/2 inch shipping foam that was in the box and duct tape it to the back and top to help insulate the box a little. Just dont cover any part of the outside that feels warm after it's plugged in. Here is something I want to warn you about but is no big deal. When the box is cold and say you go to get a drink out of it. After you close the door it forms a tight vacuum and makes the door almost impossible to open unless you wait 3 or 4 min. I do HVAC repair and have have seen this same thing happen on walk-in coolers trapping people. You need to make a way for the vacuum to be relieved. What I did was take a 2 inch piece of thermostat wire (this wire is about 1/2 the size of a cloths hanger) tapped it the top and bent it over to go between the refrigerator box and the door gasket. This little wire will allow the vacuum inside to equalize and you can open the door within 15 to 20 seconds and it wont bother the temperature. Buy the way this frig can freeze a bottle of pop if you set it to cold. My control is setting around 5 O'clock and running around 32 degrees. I leave it outside but unplug it in the winter. Good Luck

Never turn mine off once it is cold enough to turn on... but it is on a large room, and only puts a small dent in the chill.

Make sure you have power cord connected in the "cool" orientation. The cord connects in one way to cool and another way to warm the inside. Try unplugging the cord where it plugs into cooler and turning cord end over.If I misunderstood please give more detail.

I've had mine since November, the only issue i have with mine is that one of the smaller fans sticks/freezes on start up. With a small "bump" it works fine. Other than that i have no other problems with my unit.

Good Luck, the 1st cooler we bought from Haier it didn't heat up. So they shipped us a 2nd one and that one didn't get cold. The 3rd one was cracked. After that we just went elsewhere. I would check to see if the thermostat is up? There might be a switch to activate the coldness

I really have not used mine yet. I just got and it has not been cold enough to use. Here is the link to their user manual, it should explain it. http://www.laskoproducts.com/digital-ceramic-tower-heater-with-remote-control-model-5119/

It seems to run so cool for some things that the fan never comes on. I have had the fan come on (which is pretty quiet) occasionally, and it was still running pretty cool. My thought would be that you'll be fine, as long as you have a clear path from the fan area to a good supply of air.

Dont abuse/drop it and it should last years. I use cooling fans on my two that I have setup in a case. They never get warm, even during charging at the field on summer days.
