Well, if you look around the net as much as I do you can find all sorts of results and reviews, it appears that the Thermite range of fans are "up and coming" - from the results I saw, lead me to buy a Dragon Orb 3 for my 1700 XP, and if works a treat. So, I guess this is a recommendation for there range. Visit there site and look at the tests against other fans - if this does not make you rush to the shops then I'll eat my words and flog myself with a wet cabbage.
Bye
