USB Cooling Fan Governor. Model: ZK-UFS.
Our upgraded fan controller effectively manages fan speed across the entire range, from 2400 rpm to 7000 rpm. Unlike its cheaper counterpart, this model ensures there is no stalling above 6500 rpm and consistently spins the fan at low speeds. View the video below for basic operation and control of fan speed.
Usage method:
1. First, plug the male connector of USB Fan governor into the power interface such as mobile phone charger, power bank and computer USB (ensure that the power of power interface is greater than the required power of fan or LED light), and then plug ∪ sb fan plug or USB desk lamp plug into the female connector of USB fan governor. The governor default output is on.
2. The output voltage of the left dial of the dial wheel button increases; The right dial output voltage decreases.
3. Click the dial wheel button to switch the output on or off.
4. Double click the dial wheel button to turn off the nixie tube display. Press any button to wake up the nixie tube display.
Timing time setting (if desired):
1. Long press the dial wheel button for 3 seconds to enter the timing time setting interface. “—” Represents the timing off, the display number represents the timing on.
2. In the setting interface, click the dial wheel button to switch the timing function on or off.
3. In the setting interface, press the left dial wheel key to increase the timing time and decrease the right dial timing time.
4. Long press the dial wheel button for 3 seconds to exit the timing time setting interface and start the countdown.

Smartphone Cooler – Dual purpose cooler for live streaming or GameChanger Setup Instructions: (video below)
Upteded: Nov 2023
Only tested with the included phone mount. Use this phone mount to secure your phone. This mount is similar or others sold on Amazon, but it has stronger side arms and the cooler is designed around it, so it has been included with the cooler.
- Cooler fan blades are sharp. DO NOT stick your fingers or anything else in the fan blades at any time. Install the cooler over your device first and secure it using the method described in the instructions before applying power.

- On cooler days, running both fans may not be necessary to achieve sufficient cooling.
- Use 5-volt DC power ONLY! This is standard power for your GoPro or USB phone charger. Under no instances should a higher power output be used to speed the fans up as it will only damage them!

Portable Charger Battery Bank
We recommend using a Portable Charger Battery Bank with at least 20000mAh capacity. This will run your camera and cooling fans for almost all day as the fans draw very little power. I’ve recorded 5 games once and still had power remaining. (your results may vary) These can be purchased for $30 to $100 and I’ve had great success with the lesser expensive ones, but have switched to the Crave Plus PRO. I prefer to have a battery with the new style USB C in and out and one with 3 power outlets.
- For better results and lower heat output from your device, ensure your device is fully charged so it is not generating extra heat to charge the internal battery. On days when it gets over 100 degrees, I remove the battery from the GoPro for this very reason.
- Also, don’t start out using a camera that has been heat-soaked sitting in the sun in your bag before the game starts. Keep those cameras in the shade or a ziplock bag in the ice cooler.
- Crave Plus Pro, model CRVPB20P1, 20000mAh (Amazon $99.99)
- IXNINE Power Bank 26800mAh Portable Charger (Amazon $35.99)
We recommend operating the GoPro WITHOUT the internal battery.
Our testing shows an increase of 7 degrees warmer outside air
temperature before thermal overheat and shutdown.
For the GoPro 9 and new models, we recommend using a USB C to USB C cable and a Portable Charger Battery Bank with a USB C (PD Out) port. USB-C supports the USB Power Delivery (USB PD) specification. The older USB ports can deliver just 2.5 to 15 watts of power and your GoPro might not operate with that depending on the firmware version installed. But USB PD can deliver up to 100 watts of power, more than six times what older USB ports can do.
Also, note that most portable charger battery banks have an auto-off timer to turn off the battery when not enough current is being drawn or utilized. This can be a problem with operating a GoPro with an internal battery that probably only lasts for about 45 minutes and expecting the portable charger battery bank to keep the GoPro powered when its internal battery runs dead. When the internal battery goes dead, the external portable charger battery bank isn’t on and now the GoPro shuts off losing that valuable game footage.
However, our cooling fans draw enough current to keep the portable charger battery bank always on so they don’t auto-shutoff.
