Fan Controller Without the fancy lights!

Avathar77 · 7 Sep 2010 at 21:59

I have just done my water loop on my Antec 1200 case and would like to control the fans with a fan controller, but almost all of them are with fancy blinking lights!
Is there any fan controller which can control 5 or more fans with out the lights?

Should be able to find one there to suit your needs. Although one for more than 4 isn't particularly cheap.

The kind of thing you are looking for is either the Lamptron FC-2 or the Zalman ZM-MFC1 Plus multi fan controllers.

The Zalman ZM-MFC1 plus is a great controller for 6 fans, but it has led lights on it that can be a bit blingy.

Lights are bit intrusive since I use my pc to watch movies on bed, case is about 6 meters away from the bed and the stock fans in the front of antec 1200 was too bright in a darkened room, so I replaced them with AC F12's, took out the power and HDD activity led on the case as well.
I like the zalman ZM-MFC2 plus and Nesteq FanMax as well but its the light thats putting me off!

Lol me too, i hate fan lights, espically at night, bloody annoying, i would say take one of those scythe fan controllers, although you cant be sure on how bright they are xD

Have you not considered modding something? Removing led's isn't difficult.

The Zalman ZM-MFC1 plus

this is easy to get the lights not work, Just remove the yellow fan speed wire and the lights will not come on.

yep I was actually thinking of making my own fan controller using switches, but if it is easy to rig the lights to not come on in zalman I will go for that!
