00:00:00.280 --> 00:00:05.359
this will be a relatively quick unboxing I don't know if I've mentioned this on

00:00:03.399 --> 00:00:10.599
my video blog before but I'm a big fan of GED wi fans I really really like them

00:00:08.639 --> 00:00:15.120
they undervolt extremely well which is to say they don't tick or hum when you

00:00:13.200 --> 00:00:19.119
turn down the voltage to get them to quiet down and they're also uh

00:00:17.439 --> 00:00:23.320
reasonably quiet when they are running at full speed so um this is a new

00:00:21.039 --> 00:00:29.480
updated version of the GED Wing this is the wing PL series which means that it

00:00:26.000 --> 00:00:31.840
is a pwm fan with an LED so it has all

00:00:29.480 --> 00:00:37.320
kinds of cool features so pwm control and LED light uh Nano flux bearing so

00:00:35.200 --> 00:00:42.280
what pwm control means is that your uh lights won't get more Dim when you uh

00:00:40.280 --> 00:00:46.320
when you lower the voltage or rather when you lower the speed if you use pwm

00:00:44.200 --> 00:00:50.719
control you can still use voltage control on a pwm fan it's just I mean

00:00:49.440 --> 00:00:55.440
you got the feature there you might as well use it so here's some UV reactive

00:00:52.920 --> 00:01:00.199
fan Mount all right so I'll show you those under UV light in just a moment

00:00:57.480 --> 00:01:06.080
and then here is the fan with the U reactive blades as well as white LEDs

00:01:03.680 --> 00:01:09.080
mounted in the housing so you can see where the LEDs are mounted behind the

00:01:07.479 --> 00:01:14.520
fan so I'm just going to take you over into the other room here where I have my

00:01:11.799 --> 00:01:19.240
computer set up with uh there's a cat yeah that's right you move where I have

00:01:16.520 --> 00:01:26.960
my computer set up with UV lights inside it so you can see I got my uh my wing 90

00:01:22.880 --> 00:01:28.520
mm as well as my wing 120 mm fans up in

00:01:26.960 --> 00:01:33.680
the top there those are not spinning for a reason it's my fan control that turned

00:01:30.400 --> 00:01:35.759
them off so there's the UV reactive uh

00:01:33.680 --> 00:01:39.680
fan mounts so that would be kind of a neat uh neat way to mount these instead

00:01:37.920 --> 00:01:42.799
of the black ones that I have in there now maybe I should try and get my hands

00:01:41.439 --> 00:01:48.560
on some blue ones of these those are nice and then here is the uh the UV

00:01:45.680 --> 00:01:51.799
reactive green fan so once I put it in there it glows that's why I have these

00:01:50.320 --> 00:01:57.439
purple lights for those of you who don't know how UV works and no uh regular

00:01:54.840 --> 00:02:01.240
cathode lights like white blue red they will not make stuff glow like this you

00:01:59.240 --> 00:02:06.159
have to use UV in order to get this effect which I personally really like

00:02:03.560 --> 00:02:10.640
but it's not for everyone so hold on give me two seconds I'm just going to

00:02:08.560 --> 00:02:15.959
adjust my camera so hopefully I can kind of point it at what I'm doing

00:02:13.560 --> 00:02:20.000
here and I just want to plug this fan into my motherboard so that I can uh

00:02:18.519 --> 00:02:24.720
show you guys what it looks like with the LEDs lit and I have no idea what

00:02:23.200 --> 00:02:28.440
that's going to look like so we're all going to find out together because

00:02:26.280 --> 00:02:31.840
that's the beauty of this channel unscripted uncens

00:02:32.959 --> 00:02:39.480
unprofessional sometimes but what are you going to do so there you have it

00:02:36.440 --> 00:02:41.159
that is the uh White LEDs on the fan so

00:02:39.480 --> 00:02:46.560
basically it's kind of like uh the the glow is very similar to what you get

00:02:42.800 --> 00:02:49.680
from the UV but you can see now that UV

00:02:46.560 --> 00:02:51.599
light is completely unnecessary so for

00:02:49.680 --> 00:02:57.239
someone like me who's using UV in their rig for a more subtle lighting effect uh

00:02:54.560 --> 00:03:00.680
versus bright LEDs I would probably stick with the regular Wing series fans

00:02:59.200 --> 00:03:06.159
you can see how right that makes the inside and it's really going to diminish

00:03:02.480 --> 00:03:08.920
the UV effect on um on anything else

00:03:06.159 --> 00:03:12.959
because one of the disadvantages of UV is that as soon as you introduce any

00:03:10.400 --> 00:03:17.599
other light sources you're going to really really cut down on that glowing

00:03:15.080 --> 00:03:20.840
effect so you can see it glows pretty freely by itself but you go ahead and

00:03:19.239 --> 00:03:24.440
you put like a bright light source next to it and uh that glow is going to be

00:03:23.040 --> 00:03:28.799
really reduced I don't know how well you guys can see this but there's only so

00:03:26.360 --> 00:03:33.319
much I can do so thank you for checking out my unboxing

00:03:30.280 --> 00:03:37.319
and first impressions of the GED Wing
