  1. Right thermalmike i have found out what the problem is here and its a pretty simple one, take note thermaltake designers. The blade is just too heavy and tight for the tube itself, when this type of plastic changes in temperature (with water) the plastic expands enough to make it stop spinning completely. This is a simple fix for anyone out there with this problem: 1) use a fine nail file and sand 0.5mm from each edge of the blade 2) thin down the blade very very slightly again with the nail file/fine sandpaper, this will make the blade spin much faster at slower speeds. 3) dont shave too much off or it will rattle, you only want 0.5mm shaved off each side, before fitting back in the tube make sure there are no sharp edges. Now i have done this, on my neochanger400ML pumps lowest setting (1500rpm), its spinning like a barbers pole and really quick/smooth. So the problem isnt "really" with the design, its the blade, its too big/thick, thermaltake engineers havent accounted for the coefficient effect of plastics. Im happy now its spinning really fast on minimum pump speed so its all good. I like the design of this i really do
  2. Ok thanks for getting back to me, is there anywhere i can buy replacement blades for this? as i want to only use the white blade not black or red. asking because i would buy a few white ones for backup or even get a friend to design me a few on a 3d printer, im at the experimenting stage atm
  3. Right, this has stopped spinning after only 2 days, i have to put my pump on full speed to get it to spin
  4. Ok thanks, ive fitted it to my tower900 case, right in front of my ram to make it light up, but left enough space for ram removal, so i see on thermaltakes site the blades only last 6 months so you need to change the blades on every refill of the system thats why there are 3 blades in the box, can you buy these separately?
  5. 5 views in 24 hours, not the most active forum is it
  6. Hello i have bought 2 x pacific flow indicator 2's, now do these have to be fitted in a certain way? ie can they be fitted horizontally/vertically and will they spin properly? Also do they need to be near the pump to spin properly? There are no instructions in the box to show which way around it can be fitted, any help would be great! thank you.
  7. Oh great so one controller will power the lights of two pumps then, when i said make the pump 4 pin header compatible, i meant the lighting not the motor.
  8. Did you know to make the brightness levels 100% even and accurate to obtain proper rgb light levels you need a special light measuring tool also worth noting that different coloured LEDs need a different value resistor, if you are not too bothered about absolute accuracy, the only thing you need t do is change the onboard surface mount resistor inside the ring light itself, i always use a 470 Ohm for RED and 330Ohm for green and 330 Ohm for blue, red needs a higher resistor as they operate at 2.2v max, where as green and blue around 3v daisy chaining at least 6 of these ring lights can easily be done from a single 12 molex plug all connected in parallel its all down to current draw not voltage. Or you could easily wire them all in parallel from a 5v molex without any modification
  9. Thermaltake, please remove all these unsafe links above.
  10. Right i need two of these pumps for my tower 900 case one for cpu one for gpu, do i need to connect two controllers to use the rgb of both pumps? or will one controller box power the leds on both the pumps? Ideally i would prefer not to use any extra controllers as im already using ASROCK RGB and CORSAIR Link, adding a 3rd box will make a cable nightmare and possibilty of software conflict Can the pumps rgb be controlled on my asrock X370 taichi without connecting the thermaltake controller?
  11. What about the Thermaltake RGB Pumps, i need two pumps for my Thermaltake Tower900 case, will i need to connect up two usb boxes? or will one controller power 2 pumps, i really cannot understand why you didnt give the option to make the pump 4pin motherboard header compatible instead of adding yet another piece of software to control just the pumps lighting.

    SPARES

    Thermal TAKE it thats a NO then.

    SPARES

    Do thermaltake sell spares for the tower 900 case,? i wanted an extra pair of radiator mounts so i can mod them.
  14. Thanks! ill get 2 of these for a dual loop
  15. oh dear, the corsair rgb kit is a much better deal
  16. I was wondering if anyone here knew which exact 3pin fans the tower900 comes with, it has two installed i could do with another 8 of them, i want the non led black version identical to the suppiled ones.

    THE TOWER 900

    Well i got the white version, and looking at it now im glad i did, it makes the leds look much better!
  18. Could someone tell me what type of flow spinner this is in the tubing here? at 1min 34seconds.

    THE TOWER 900

    Man i love the design of this chassis, but i can't decide on white or black? lol I will be buyng the am4 gaming 5 motherboard with white accents on it, i would't be surprised if this is thermaltakes best selling case ever, its awsome.
