FAQs
How does the cooling system work?
The unit combines a heat sink with a 7000 rpm fan and TEC thermoelectric cooling technology. This actively draws heat away from the camera body during high-resolution or high-frame-rate recording. It helps delay overheating shutdown, particularly in warmer environments.
How is the fan mounted to the camera?
The fan uses a tool-free snap-on frame that fits into the Nikon ZR’s rear LCD slot. Once installed, the LCD screen cannot be folded back into its closed position. The mounting bracket can be removed if using the fan with certain compatible Sony cameras.
How is the fan powered on set?
The fan runs via USB-C power input at 4 to 10.8 V DC. It can be powered from compatible SmallRig V-mount battery plates or other USB power sources, providing flexibility for studio or location use. Typical power consumption is 5 W, with a maximum of 18 W.
Does it work with cameras other than the Nikon ZR?
Yes. While designed for the Nikon ZR, it can also be used with select Sony mirrorless models once the mounting bracket is removed. Compatibility depends on the camera’s rear design and LCD configuration.
Is the cooling constant or adjustable?
The fan offers high- and low-speed modes, allowing you to adjust cooling performance based on recording conditions. Intelligent temperature control helps regulate operation to maintain stable performance during extended shooting.
