The Pi 4 does run hot but this keeps it at a good temperature. Its surprisingly quiet too!

Fiddly to assemble but works well and makes no noise at all. I had to look closely to be sure that the fan was spinning when the green led came on. My pi goes from a resting temp of 50 degrees C to about 60 degrees where the fan kicks in while running stress. Temperature never goes above 60 degrees during the test. That is using the recommended settings. Very happy with it and given the reports of how hot the Pi 4 gets it is a must.

I think it is an essential accessory, because RPi4 produces a lot of heat.

This is the little fan that could! What a great, fully featured product. Installation is super simple and the instructions are more than clear. There are even scripts to install to control what temperature activates the fan! The activity LED is a nice touch as well! A definite buy if you’re looking for active cooling and works really well with the Ninja Pibow case! And as with everything from Pimoroni, the packaging was top notch. A really nice touch!

Excellent value, build and performance. Added it to my pi 4 with a coupe case in minutes. Seeing sub 40 degrees now rather than 60 before install. Would recommend as hot pi(e) is not good pi in this instance!
