@qkall @linuxphones

Really glad you posted this photo. One of your other photos of this unfortunately cuts off the latter letters and makes it look like you have a sticker on your phone that just says "Run Jew"... which sounds more than a bit violent and anti-semetic. 👀

That aside, a #LinuxMobile phone with a cooling fan looks badass!

Oh 😂, nope... Not a hater of any folk, other than haters I guess... But yeah it's a Run the Jewels sticker (hip hop group)

Does it get hot or something?

I'm partial to the EPs (coloring book, my colour green), but the tattoo on my arm states that I'm down for it all 😅

See, I did an oopsie and burned myself out on the EPs.

@qkall @linuxphones Great project! I thought of building something similar for my #Librem5 using a Peltier module. Never got around to it and they largely fixed the heat issue on the #L5. Nice work! Is the fan screwed into the backplate or into something glued to the backplate?

@qkall @linuxphones that’s even better. Easier to remove and no fuss. You should patent. 😛

Sadly not a bright lad. Purchases on Amazon.

@qkall @linuxphones Are you able to charge it at the same time as the fan is plugged in?
