LEPA Introduces the BOL.Quiet Series Case Fans
 

Two years ago, LEPA has successfully introduced the first fan series. With the unique LED effects of the Casino and Chopper models, the manufacturer has quickly won the hearts of gamers and hardware enthusiasts. In the meantime, the LEPA engineers worked on new products and technological advancements to boost up the cooling performance of the fans. As a result, the company now presents the BOL.Quiet series with three new 12cm models. They are now available for sale in Europe.

The patented BOL Bearing from LEPA
All LEPA fans are based on a patented bearing technology. In comparison with usual ball bearing fans, LEPA's "Barometric Oilless Bearing" (BOL) ensures a smoother and quieter rotation. Furthermore, the BOL fans are designed for an extraordinary long lifetime of 160,000 hours MTBF! To reach such high performance capability, LEPA applies a self-lubricating sleeve made from a high-tech nano material as well as a magnet which connects the rotor with the base. That way, the manufacturer minimizes the contact area and can avoid annoying rattling or grinding noises.
