Roku Cooling Stand 40mm Fan

thingiverse

My Roku Ultra started giving me a message that it was overheating. So I designed this stand to raise it up off of the TV stand and increase airflow. While I was at it, I figured I should mount a 5v fan that would increase the air circulation a bit more. On the Roku Ultra, this can run off of the USB port on the side. I also printed one for my Roku Premier (no USB port), but it runs great off of a 5v battery pack. I get the overheating message far less often with just the Roku stand helping to increase the airflow. If the overheating message does pop up... I switch the fan on and I have a nice cool Roku. I glued some felt to the corners, this makes for a nice soft/snug fit. I glued the fan in place, but the design allows for screws if you wanted. I got a 5 pack of 5v fans on amazon. (40mm Fan 5V Hydraulic Bearing Brushless 4010 40x10mm - Quiet) I got a 12 pack of the rocker switches from amazon. (Rocker Round Toggle LED Switch On-Off Control) I used an old USB charging cable to connect to power.
