In order for the fan to operate, it must be plugged in with a usb cable. If you get a longer cord for it and a power adapter, you could use it, but you'd have to attach it because the Nintendo switch base stabilizes it. The overall experience would not be recommended, but it is possible.
I did not change anything, it worked perfectly with 31
By means of the dock, the fan is held firmly in place. Using it in handheld mode isn't possible, however it shouldn't be necessary as it produces less heat when using it A USB c adapter can technically be used to power the fan, but there is no means by which it can be secured to the console.

By replacing the tiny 50mm fan I found on eBay, I was able to repair the laptop Although it was not a perfect fit, a few modifications were needed. That fan, too, developed a noise and grinding issue because of its bearing. Those dock fans that clip onto the back of the dock and blow air at the back of the Switch have been a disappointment to me. When you place the Switch in front of a box fan or pedestal fan, it has the same effect as if you had just positioned it in front of them. It only cools the plastic backside of the Switch when connected to a typical Dock fan. The console does not move air into or out of it. Still, the fan embedded in the machine does most Therefore, it was vital for me to try this fan to see if a difference could be made. * Due to its close fitting to the switch above the exhaust vent, this fan should do more cooling just by virtue of its design. Obviously, it is not an easy situation to describe, since it is not a snap on scenario. As a rule, the shroud keeps leaks at bay pretty The fan "pulls" the air from the console because it's a vortex fan. With the addition of this cooler, the internal fan is able to pull more air through the system, which helps convey more fresh air through the console than if it was simply running with As a matter of fact, I am amazed! There are many good things about this
Speed can be adjusted from 600 rpm up to 6000 rpm
Only three control buttons are needed Despite being able to increase or decrease the volume, you can still use the headset and plug in the device. The shroud is large enough to cover the exhaust port completely and not block the audio There is a micro USB cable included with the device. In order to use it, you need an adapter. The adapter plugs into the back of the console dock. The HDMI cord goes between the power cord and the HDMI cable and it is the perfect length for this purpose. It displays both the current rpm of the fan and the temperature that the air escaping the console has in degrees Celsius on the display. will not be able to measure CPU or GPU temperatures internally. I am writing, it costs just $15, which isn't bad at all. The cooling actually affects the console's internal temperature The following example illustrates this). There is one negative aspect to this Measures the temperature only of air flowing out of the The only confusing aspect about this is that it wasn't clearly stated that it measures only air temperature, and so people might be confused. We are not talking about a radiator fan here. My guess is that this is an incorrect translation or misinterpretation of what a radiator actually There is no heatsink on this device, nor are any metal fins visible anywhere. In theory, that's fine as the software doesn't need anything like that to function or do its job right, but its description is misleading a bit. A vortex fan is all that this is. This is only in celcius neither Fahrenheit nor degrees Celsius are shown. (*The fan speed and temperature are automatically displayed on the display. Both cannot be displayed at the same time. There is no pass-through extra USB port on the device, so one of your three ports is taken up by this. The unit is reasonably loud when it is running at maximum speed and turned on. Even though it's impossible to escape when the thing is spinning at 6000 rpm, some people might get annoyed by it. It's not noticeable at all at 4000 rpm, however. Conclusion I think it is an efficient way to use resources. the Nyko intercooler or any other knock off brand fan that clips onto the back of the dock and just blows air towards the back of the console, this thing blows air at the back of the console! this sensor is accurate, the air temperature never went above 36 degrees Celsius (97 degrees Fahrenheit) when the engine was running at 6000rpm, and it never went above 42 degrees Celsius (108 degrees Fahrenheit) when the engine was running at 1000 rpm. I was playing Fortnite on the little console, and it was going to be taxing on it. I find that impressive and it shows the cooler the air gets the faster it runs. Due to the fact that air is pulled directly from the console cooling system, it can be inferred that the internal temperature drops. In other words, this fan actually works to cool the console itself while dock fans don't do anything. As I write this, I'm in the first day of my ownership and I'm impressed so far. It is not worth losing a star in this case since the "bad" things are at best trivial, and they don't warrant one in my opinion. In order to determine how long the fan will last before its bearings or something else fails, the real test is how long it will last. So far, I rate it a 5 star review based on how much it cools the console in actuality, and did exceed my expectations.
Do not buy. I had no problems for the first three months, but now the fan only runs when it wants to, then shuts A post said a 12 month warranty, I emailed us and got a reply within 24 hours, three days later I didn't hear from them. recommend this store based on the bad customer service and no customer service. AVOID, DON'T BUY!.
Since I have been on release and released- I have a switch on release The performance of consoles released in the early days is notoriously less than that of models released afterwards. My switch has been a staple in my life since 2017 and I play competitive Splatoon 2 daily, logging nearly 5 thousand hours. Over the past few months, I started experiencing overheating problems and using this external fan helped relieve it. Now that the switch has cooled down, this game is actually playable, since I could not even use it for more than 5 minutes before. I can now play for longer intervals of time. The replacement of this fan, together with an external and internal fan, can make your switch operate at its best.
Is there any reason not to Trying it for under $20 was a good deal and if it didn't work, it would be a reasonable loss. Having said that, it works really well and does the job much better than I could have imagined. The kit to repair my cooling fan is still in the bag this weekend, but I suspect that will be enough to keep it out of the landfill. If your cooling fan is on its last legs, give this a go. Unless something drastic happens to Nintendo Switch, maybe there is no need to worry about failure any longer.
However, it seems to drop the temperature much more than 7 degrees between on and off (according to the temperature gauge built into the unit). do not believe that this is the result of fancy tech, but more likely due to the fact that the Switch's default fan is very inefficient, and this is better by an order of magnitude. But whatever Although I had to peel some of the foam off of the support tab because it was too tight of a fit between the case and dock, it worked with my case still attached. As a result of reduced throttling I did not see any performance improvements, but running cooler is beneficial for product lifespan, so for $10, it's not a bad buy.
This might not be surprising when you think about how air circulates in the Switch holder. This often causes some games to slow down or the graphics to go haywire, forcing me to shut down the computer and wait. With this fan, the machine remains cool enough throughout use and I have not experienced any heating problems.
When docked, it began to heat up after a while. This has been a significant problem on that console, as I discovered through my research. searched the internet and YouTube for remedies, such as taking it out of the entertainment center and placing it on the floor. The problem could not be solved by that or any other solution. When playing on the television, the only thing that worked was to place the fan we use to cool our dog behind the docking station. As a result, a great YouTube quest began to find the best fan for the dock for the Switch. SUCKERS! I can sum them up in a few words they all stink! I stumbled across this gem while searching for a solution to get my dog his night fan back in the middle of "COVID Summer 2020. " When I found this, I figured I had to give it a shot. It worked out of the box, which was a godsend. There is no need to fiddle with the speed settings. As I mentioned in my title, I've summarized everything. I PUT IT TO WORK!.
