My batch 3 standard unit's fan is making grinding noises while it is running and this was recently received in January. Is there anyway to replace this fan? If I place the unit on the side, the grinding noise is minimal.

Hi, yes it is easy to replace the fan, I used a Sunon Miniature Fan 5VDC Square 25 x 25 x 6mm 2.2 CFM 2 Wire Leads, I cut the wires from the connector, leaving plenty of wire to reattach and then soldered the new fan to the wires and connector.

Not sure where you are but there is a company on ebay uk that has these at a good price.

£3.99 each inc shipping, I am sure you will be able to find one and they are a fantastic replacement.

This is what I used too; can't go wrong with Sunon
