Nintendo Switch Active Cooling Adapter

This is probably not a thing for everyone owning a Nintendo Switch.

I am not responsible for any damage done to your Nintendo Switch or other hardware caused by this little 5 minute project of mine.

When playing Fortnite and other games which are squeezing the last amount of power out of the Switch, I noticed the amount of hot air leaving the console.

The original fan should be able to cool the Switch and the hardware has for sure overheat protection, but I found that adding a little fan would support the cooling factor and it did.

Using this adapter there is no noticeable temperature difference between the room and the vent shaft, while before if was way above room temperature.

To build this adapter you need a 3D printer (who would have guessed that?) a 30x30mm fan, at least two 2mm self tapping screws to fit the fans mounting holes and a way to power it. I soldered the unused USB plug from an USB LED strip directly to the fan and covered the mess using some heat shri
