Evercool 80x80x15 EL Bearing (2500 RPM) EC8015M12EA

Evercool 80x80x15 EL Bearing (2500 RPM) EC8015M12EA is a thin 80 mm fan aimed at compact configurations and cases with limited space. With a thickness of only 15 mm, you can fit it where standard 25 mm fans simply do not fit. The speeds of up to 2500 RPM and an airflow of 28.49 CFM provide decent cooling for this format, while the noise level below 26 dBA keeps it within relatively comfortable limits. The EL Bearing is a balanced solution between price, durability, and stable operation.

What you get: a thin fan 80 x 80 x 15 mm suitable for narrow front panels, low-profile cases, HTPCs, or for replacing stock 80 mm fans in power supplies and small chassis. At 2500 RPM and 28.49 CFM / 48.4 m3/h airflow, you can count on decent airflow for cooling the motherboard, chipset, drives, or less heat-generating components. The noise level below 26 dBA is okay for continuous operation if you want a balance between silence and airflow. It operates on standard 12 V, with a consumption of 1.92 W and a current of up to 0.16 A, which does not put additional load on the motherboard. With a 3 PIN connector, you can connect it directly to most system FAN headers without the need for additional adapters.

• Compact form factor 80 x 80 x 15 mm, making it suitable for narrow cases, SFF systems, and places with limited clearance.
• Speed up to 2500 RPM, providing stable airflow for cooling lighter loads and compact configurations.
• Airflow 28.49 CFM / 48.4 m3/h, sufficient for circulating air around the motherboard, drives, and the area around the PSU.
• Low noise level below 26 dBA, making it suitable for 24/7 operation without annoying loud fan noise.
• Bearing type EL Bearing, providing a good balance between durability, smooth operation, and price.
• Standard power 12 V, 0.16 A and consumption of only 1.92 W, gentle on the motherboard and PSU.
• 3 PIN connector for easy connection to most motherboards and fan controllers.
• Declared MTBF 40000 hours, which is adequate for a fan in this class under normal operation.

Who it is suitable for: if you have a small case, HTPC, SFF build, or an old power supply/device that needs a replacement of an 80 mm fan with a thin profile, this model is a practical choice. It is also suitable for those looking for a compromise between airflow and noise, without extras like PWM. It is not the best option if you are chasing maximum aggressive cooling for high-heat components or want precise PWM control of the speeds.

The combination of a thin 15 mm profile, decent airflow, and low consumption makes the Evercool EC8015M12EA a good small “workhorse” for compact and service solutions. If you need a reliable 80 mm fan for tight spaces without unnecessary effects and marketing, this model does exactly that.
