What does it take to become the king of kings in the ‘fan controller’ world? Some try to grab the crown by useing fancy LED’s that zigzag along, which have a passing resemblance to a Cylon from Battleestar Galactica. Others may try to go for a more demur look and try for quality or additional features such as temperature probes. All manufacturers are in a ‘free for all’ in an attempt to grab the crown for themselves. One such contender is Lamptron and we all know the aforementioned company is a ‘dab-hand’ at this game, with producing fan controllers one after another for years.
Lamptron have produced many good products such as the FC/3 and the FC-Touch product. In the past each one of these items have boasted a massive 30 watts per channel. Now any water cooling enthusiast ‘worth their salt’ would connect their water cooling pumps to the product and have the controller power them. However, the FC/9 promises to do a little more than the usual fare, let us see if Lamptron can truly have even a glimpse of the crown, much less snatch it.
