T-Balancer miniNG

The miniNG is the first fan controller with patented Dual Mode Technology (DMT) which combines analogue Silence with strong PWM power. You can choose per channel, if you want to drive analogue or not. You can also switch with software or with jumper while system is running.

The miniNG with its huge heatsink can power up to 20W per channel with analogue voltage and 50W per channel with PWM. You can configure temperature limits and speed curves with jumpers or with the T-Balancer and its software.

The miniNG is also the first controller, which works with the Laing DDC-12V.
 

• separate control of 2 fan channels
• 50W per channel with PWM, combined 100W
• 20W per channel with analogue, combined 25W
• 2 analogue sensors
• kick-start for water pumps
• configuration with jumpers and potentiometers
• free configuration with T-Balancer and its software
• integrated overheat protection in analogue operation

The heart of the miniNG is a powerfull microprocessor with integrated permanent memory. The processor enables a lot of configuration possibilities and the connection to the T-Balancer. All configurations are saved to the memory.

The miniNG works completely autonom and can also be operated without the T-Balancer. But if you own a T-Balancer you can make all configurations with Software and you can create new profiles and save them to the miniNG.

"What do you get when you put a bunch of talented Austrians into a small room with a bunch of fans, a few silicon chips and a soldering iron? The world smallest and most advanced fan controller, their miniNG is basically a brain for your fans."

"We have to admit that this fan controller really surprised. The idea of using a microcontroller to enable not only fanregulation but also monitoring works really well. It gives a possibility to run the fans at a much reduced speed without the risk of them stopping. Unfortunately we haven’t had a chance to test it with a T-balancer and all settings has therefore been through hardware. We expect that tuning through software makes it a lot easier to get it exactly the way it is wanted.

Another thing which really sets this controller apart is the high output. 100 W is more than enough to control a water pump. So if you have a 12V pump which doesn’t need a full 12V this controller would be a great addition. Unfortunately we haven’t had the chance to test with a pump and therefore cannot say anything about this combination"

The miniNG is a great little product that offers a lot of features in a tiny package, not only is it powerful, but it gives the user the ability to fully configure their cooling solutions.

The controller can also be used to control water pumps as well, the miniNG can 'kick start' pumps that will not start at lower voltages. Having the ability to raise and lower your pump flow according to temperatures is something really cool indeed.

For someone that is into do it yourself systems then this is a great product, it is nice and small and can be hidden many places in your computer. I think water cooling enthusiasts will really like this product, I will be trying it with one of my pumps, I have a Laing DDC-12v, that does not like to start all the time when I turn the computer on, I believe the miniNG will solve this problem by throwing some more volts at it during startup. ThinkComputers give the mCubed miniNG fan controller a 9 out of 10 score, and our Recommended Award.
