Fan-Swappable RGB Fans

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Thermaltake Launched the SWAFAN 14 with Replaceable Blades

— December 14, 2023 — Tech
Thermaltake, the computer components manufacturer most known for its cooling-focused devices, such as fans and airflow cases, launched the SWAFAN 14, an RGB cooling fan with swappable blades. The SWAFAN 14 is designed to be customizable and adaptable to the layout of any desktop case.

This is achieved not only through the unique placement of the power pins on the fans, but also through the ability to remove and replace the fan blades themselves. The front-facing RGB lights on the SWAFAN 14 provide excellent lighting and RGB coverage. However, given that fans only flow air in one direction, for some users the fans may need to be placed backwards for either intake or exhaust fans, which would normally cause the frame to show and block the RGB lights. On the SWAFAN, the fans can be removed and rotated, enabling either intake or exhaust in all configurations, ensuring that the RGB lights are always facing the desired direction, unobstructed by the plastic frame.
