Installation:
Installation of a device like this is quite simple and quick to do. However, it does involve getting your hands dirty inside your computer so make sure you're comfortable in there before you start disconnecting plugs. After it was bolted into the drive bay of my case, I hooked up a couple fans and a cathode lighting kit to it as my test subjects. Since some fan cables reached perfectly, I didn't bother using the extensions because they only cause clutter. Remember to always make sure your power supply is turned off or unplugged when working inside your computer. Shutting down the computer in Windows does NOT completely power your computer off, so if you simply do that and then start pulling plugs inside you could not only severely hurt yourself from a possible electrical shock but you could also render the computer useless.

Testing:
Since one of my aims is to run a very quiet computer, I'm always looking for ways to better control my fans and cooling peripherals. Having the control to run them so quietly I can't hear them is a must when working in my recording studio, but, being able to quickly bring them all up to maximum cooling power when I want to play games is also very important. I've used some digital panels but I didn't like the fact I had to select each fan and individually bring them all up to spped one-by-one. Something like the Fan-Atic looks promising because I can easily flip a few switches and completely change the operation of my computer in a matter of seconds.

When I flicked the first switch of the Fan-Atic my inside lights came to life. These are great to illuminate the insides of my case in a soft green colour. When I switched that channel down to 7V only half of the cathode tube lit up. This is likely because neon tubes like this aren't designed to be run on a dimmer or at anything less than full power. No worries there though, lights on and lights off is all that most people need anyways.

With the next few switches all my fans came to life at full power, which for me isn't an incredibly loud sound because the fans are all well selected for their cooling to noise ratio. After switching my fans down to 7V I was pleased to see that this was practically the same speed I used to run them at with my old dial-controlled baybus.
