**Problems with YATE LOONS**

**exemay** · 01-07-2009, 02:09 PM

Just thaught that id give you guys a heads up if you recently orderd any yate loons, as i got this email a few minuites ago informing me that my order has been canceled:

****Thank you for your order. Unfortunately we have sent all the D12-SM fans back to our distributor after customers reported clicking from the motor after 1-2 days use. This is a random problem that affects yate loons. We will be replacing the D12-SM fans but we cannot give a precise date as these are supplied from Germany.****

just a lil heads up

No wonder my order of those still hasn't arrived.

I contacted the place I ordered from and they said they were receiving new ones to ship out.

**Ozzfest05** · 01-07-2009, 02:14 PM

Just got mine running for a few days no problems but they are the d12's which are red and black

**WhiteFireDragon** · 01-07-2009, 02:14 PM

what online store did you buy these from?

**Zeus** · 01-07-2009, 02:16 PM

Does this only effect the SM types or all Yate Loons?

**exemay** · 01-07-2009, 02:18 PM

http://watercooled-pcs.co.uk/en/
on monday....guess my build wont be up and going for a while. nowhere has stock of anything, and its

ing me off, i had to source my rads, compression fittings and tubing from different supliers cause no where has stock

**Boogerlad** · 01-07-2009, 03:08 PM

order from petras who buy from yate loon directly.

**N19h7m4r3** · 01-07-2009, 03:20 PM

Would order from Petra's but shipping to EU for just a few fans is crazy.

I just bought some fans from petras. The SL version. But and all of them has the "fan" (the thing with the blade attached to it) mounted of center. So it vobbels and creates vibrations. Not very satisfied with the yates I must say... I have a yate SH that was originally mounted in a PSU and that one is just fine. Maybe it is something wrong? But then Ill have to send them to the US and that is not cheap!

We where 3 ppl who made an order of 20 fans total. And all of them have the same problem, some more than the others but all had the problem

And if I remember correct, one of the fans had a clicking noise. But I have only been using some of the fans when I tested for leeks. And that was about 1 day. Maybe I should let them spin for some time.

Edit:

My yates (S12SL) have the number "810"

Jab-Tech traced the difference in fans on model numbers.

Thats why john is asking for the 3 digit code the fans have.

When vapor ran the test, he was using the old yates jab-tech carried. John no long carries those anymore.

Which is why he wants to know model numbers incase new model yates poped out.

Production date was never the issue.

**Demthios** · 01-07-2009, 06:13 PM

That explains it.... I ordered my back before thanksgiving and they are already clicking, a quick thump to the center of the fan and they stop. Plan on replacing them at some point of time just haven't gotten around to it...

Be careful it's not just the sticker applied crooked. It'd be pretty darn hard to mount the actual mechanism off-center.

I would like to know the production date for my own selfish purposes and to specifically request I don't get any of them.

The sticker is on the other side. The one not spinning. It is off-center. If i take one of my nocutuas/nexus/sytche they are exactly centred. If I spin them with my finger you can see that it is not spinning perfect. And when the fan is on, you can feel it isn't centred if you hold it up in the air. It is wobbling :\

Man, that stinks. Can you return them? How many are like that?
