    Scythe Kaze master Mofsets? reaching 91+C with 2 fans attached within specs??

    I have 3 fan controllers and need to condense to 2 for space, so need to run 2 fans per controller on some.

    According to scythe fan controller, specs are:
    Maximum Fan Ampere per Channel 1 Ampere = 12 W max.

    Fans I tried running 2 of are Scythe GT 1850 (<0.1 amps per fan) and Scythe S flex F (0.2 amps so 2 is 0.4 amps).

    With 1 fan, temp on ?mofsets was 50's C when running fan full speed, 70C when running fan low speed.
    With 2nd fan hooked up, temp was 70C when running full speed and 90-93C (SEE PIC) when running 2 fans at low speed.

    Anyone have a guess if 90C within specs of that component? Tried it with more than one temp probe and all are calibrated accurate, and it will burn your finger quickly to touch it (which is why I measured I was testing rpm readouts with 2 fans hooked up an accidentally touched it). I guess if it dies no loss, going to replace soon anyways, just as long as it doesnt smoke and smell like electric fire like my video card did when gpu seals leaked, resulting in a long conversation with wife about watercooling...
