Hi all!
I’ve just ordered VIM2 Pro and start reading this forum. Maybe I should do in first place 
Is it realy necessary to install fan or radiator? If so why is not included in original package?
Don’t tell me that watcing a 1080p video and running torrent is to much for VIM2…and is calling for extra cooling?!
Regards,
Tomaz
Looks much nicer than the one that ive just hacked together! Standard heatsink and fan with a 20x20x10mm copper shim to go from the cpu to the outside of the case, with a couple of plastic spacers to lift the fan to the right place! Looking forward to a more integrated solution!
When will this new model be available?
It’s heatsink for VIM1 and VIM2, not a new model, and will be ready to sale next month.
Looks good and tidy.
This looks fantastic! I just bought a pack of heatsinks and some artic silver epoxy (arriving today) so I’m glad I checked here before making a permanent mistake!
I like you, you are great
Very nice !
When and where can I buy ?
As it’s CNC sample only, and we still need design mold for mass-production, will update further information next week or so.
Thanks!
Very good! Congrats!"
Very nice! Waiting till it will move to assembly. It gives a feel like it would be ready for industrial sector. It might open for you new markets. I really like the idea - everything out of the box!
Nice one @Gouwa!
Any tests regarding how loud is the fan in normal operation?
Do you have any calculations how much will it cost?

Here is my DIY cooler assembly. There is a small recovered southbridge heatsink glued to the S912 chip with locktight bolt glue. I then cut a 2" hole above this and attached a recovered 12V cooling fan from an old PCI graphics card. This is attached directly to the GPIO 5V supply so runs constantly. I used the original top plate and added small 5mm spacers between the lid and the next layer down.
Result is an absolutely quiet assembly which maintains a self reported temp of 35 Centigrade regardless of load.
Any update on the new CNC design and mass-production date?
The mold is almost done, but as Chinese Spring Festival is coming, lot of factories in Shenzhen are on holiday a few days later.
We plan to launch the heatsink together with the cooling fan in early of March.
Thanks!
Don’t you mind if I share my DIY version of something to do with the Vim?
In russian we call it - made of shit and sticks 
Surprisingly works fine, balbes150 LE indicates 42C max
(it was a box from a Firefly camera remote)
Nicely done.
