The Raspberry Pi Active Cooler provides an alternative cooling solution for users who wish to use their Raspberry Pi 5 under sustained heavy load without a case (but you might want to add one of our fancy Active Cooler covers for protection!)

The Active Cooler combines a large metal heatsink with a high-quality variable-speed blower fan, powered and controlled via the fan connector on the Raspberry Pi 5, attached to the board via sprung pins into the dedicated pair of mounting holes.

As the heat from the Pi 5 CPU spreads across the heatsink body and fins, the blower fan pushes cool air over them to keep your Raspberry Pi 5 running at optimal thermal levels. The cooler uses thermal pads to create a solid thermal connection with the Raspberry Pi 5.

The fan is software-controlled, allowing it to remain off (and therefore silent) until temperatures reach the specified threshold.

Need a replacement fan? We have one here that fits perfectly!

Essential if you're grabbing a Pi 5 (in my case, for a media server).

Easy installation & good value for a small but premium in weight and appearance add-on. Keeps temps well under control.

This is one cool bit of kit and I love the active part, only kicks in when it is needed to help keep the Pi cool. Well worth it, to help protect your machine.

Active Cooler for Raspberry Pi 5
Having problems with RPi5 going over 70C running in official case with fan so bought the Active Cooler. After purchase I read that it will not fit over the heat sink that comes with the official hardware. Tried removing it but bricked my RPi5 so had to buy another. Pity there was not a work around as these cases and fans are, allegedly Pi approved, so lost one star. New Pi now running as previously in official case with Nvme hat and active cooler 24/7 extracting api data into MySQL which also stores qtr hourly cpu temperatures. So I have data to compare: Mean, Max Legacy was 54.28, 71.23 Latest is 45.87, 50.70 Ambient external temperatures before and after were close. Speaks for itself dropping the mean cpu temperature has dropped 8.5C and the max 20.5C but more importantly with less fluctuation so more in control. Lesson, if you buy the official case that comes with a fan and heatsink do not fit either. Purchase the Active Cooler. One last word, I have to praise the PiHut for admin and efficiency. Immediate acknowledgement of both orders and very fast dispatch during working hours (I ordered the Pi at the weekend and advised of dispatch Monday a.m.). Courier is Royal Mail and arrives extremely well packaged. So thanks PiHut.

Hope this one lasts longer than the last which was about 17 months before it started making noise whilst running. Apart from that, easy to install and works immediately in relation to the pi5 temps.

Really easy to fit (just remember the header on the RPi board has a cover over it!) and good for keeping your power apps cool :-)
