Trying out the VapoChill LightSpeed [AC]:

After plugging in the power cord the blue backlight on the LCD display of the VapoChill lights up as does the blue LED on the Chill Control board. I hold the power button on my case down for one second and the VapoChill springs to life. There is a short gurgle as the compressor fires up, and then it only emits a very slight hum/buzz. The two fans are also very quiet at this point. The LCD display shows the evaporator head temperature slowly cooling to the startup temperature, and when it reaches that temperature the Chill Control board powers on my computer. I boot right into windows without any problems, then following the instructions in the manual I go to the Asetek homepage and download the latest VapoChill Control Panel software. I also downloaded the full Vapochill LightSpeed [AC] manual which details how to setup the software and install a driver for the USB connection to the Chill Control board. Next I start up the VapoChill Control Panel software and check through the multitude of features and options. The software offers every necessary bit of information and control from fan speeds and voltages to socket heater management. It also allows for customization of what is shown on the LCD display on the VapoChill. I took screenshots of each tab of the software and for more information you can visit the VapoChill Support Forum.
