By reducing the risk of overheating, this cooling system ensures that your console performs optimally, extending its lifespan and preventing potential heat-related issues.

• Plug and Play
  The TP4-819US cooler is incredibly easy to set up, requiring no additional power supply. It draws DC 5V power directly from the PS4 Slim’s USB port, making it a true plug-and-play device. Simply connect the cooler to the USB port on your PS4 Slim, and it’s ready to go. There’s no need for external adapters or additional cables, making the setup process quick and hassle-free.

• Quiet Operation
  Despite the cooler’s powerful fans, it operates quietly, with a noise level that doesn’t exceed 50 dB. This means that even during intense gaming sessions, the sound of the cooler won’t be distracting. The balanced airflow volume and noise level make it ideal for gamers who want to maintain a quiet environment while ensuring their console stays cool.

• Compact and Seamless Design
  The TP4-819US cooler is designed specifically for the PS4 Slim model CUH-2xxx, integrating seamlessly with the console’s design. Its sleek, compact build ensures that it doesn’t add bulk or interfere with the console’s aesthetics. The snap-on, tool-free installation means it fits tightly and securely onto the console, making it compatible with most vertical charger stands available on the market.

• LED Indicator
  An LED indicator is built into the cooler, providing a visual confirmation of its operational status. This simple yet effective feature lets you know when the cooler is active, ensuring that your console is being properly cooled without needing to guess or check manually.

Whether you need to charge your controllers, connect a USB storage device, or use other peripherals, these extra ports ensure you don’t have to sacrifice functionality for cooling.

• Dual Working Modes: Automatic and Manual
  The cooler offers two working modes—Turbo and Auto—to suit different gaming situations. In Turbo mode, the fans run at maximum speed, providing the most powerful cooling effect. In Auto mode, the cooler automatically adjusts the fan speed based on the console’s temperature, turning on when the temperature exceeds 38°C and off when it cools down. This mode is managed by a built-in sensor, which ensures your console remains at an optimal temperature without constant manual adjustments.

• 3x Mini and Effective Turbo Cooling Fans
  The three mini turbo fans are the heart of the cooler’s operation, delivering a high-speed airflow that effectively removes heat from the console. These fans are engineered to maintain a balance between airflow volume and noise level, ensuring efficient cooling without excessive noise.

• Easy Tool-Free Snap-On Installation
  Installing the TP4-819US cooler is straightforward and doesn’t require any tools. The cooler features a snap-on design that allows it to be securely attached to the PS4 Slim with minimal effort. This ease of installation means you can quickly set up the cooler and start enjoying its benefits immediately.
