Scythe Kaze Master Pro KM03-BK Fan Controller Review

Modding/Small Mods by stefan @ 2010-05-12

The latest fan 5.25 inch fan controller from Scythe is named Kaze Master Pro and has 6 separate channels. The screen can display information about 2 channels at once, but we have switches to go through and see data about all the available channels. It also features alarms, Celsius/Fahrenheit switch and a nice looking VFD screen.

This revised fan controller version from Scythe has 2 more channels added; Scythe opted to display only two channel information at once on the VFD, with bigger digits than the older versions. Also, switching from one channel to another is really easy, by using the lateral knobs.

The fan controller has also an alarm feature, which helps us a lot to see if something goes wrong. The alarm is not only heard, but it is also displayed in the center of the screen.

The case of the controller has also been revised, now being completely covered to avoid dust accumulation and has ventilation holes in the back; because of this, it also does look very professional.

The only extra feature I would like to see implemented in the next revision is the possibility to see the voltage for each channel displayed on the VFD screen.

At ~$45 it’s not the most affordable fan controller out there, but with 6 channels, fancy VFD display and alarm feature it does make give you value for your money.

I would like to thank Scythe for making this review possible.
