A simple cooler to force air through a Phantom 4 Pro battery. In my testing, this cooler will take a hot post-flight battery to cool enough to charge in about 1 minute if the ambient temperature is around 75-80 degrees Fahrenheit.
It is powered using a 12V car outlet, or via any other 12V power source. It can also be run off 5V but fan speed (and cooling speed as a result) will be significantly slower.
##Hardware Needed:
2 - 40mm x 28mm Fan
(The above Sunon Maglev server fans are expensive but they do the job as you would hardly believe incredible little fans.)
2 - 40mm Fan Grills (optional)
1 - Mini Toggle Switch
1 - DC Power Jack
4 - M3 x 40mm Machine Screws
