The b-cool 80mm fan is truly a one of a kind device, beside being a very well build fan which is build around a translucent blue frame the b-cool also provides a feature never before seen in the lab as far as fans go.  That is the ability to display the ambient air temperature with LEDs built into the fan.  If you look closing at the above picture you can see the miniature LEDs that are attached to the cross bar that runs from NW to SE on the fan.

 
 
 
Two other things worth mentioning are the extra long length 3 wire connector wire so you can either connect it to a header on your motherboard or directly to your power supply and the matching fan guard which will insure that no wires or small fingers enter the fan while it is in operation.
 

The b-cool fan rotates at approximately 2200 rpm and after reaching its maximum speed the LEDs that display the temperature magically appear.  Then to insure you can read the temperature the word "Cool" and the "Temperature" slowly rotate around the fan.  The colors are bright and vivid and will definitely add a wow factor to any case that they are installed in.  I give Bluegears Inc. and +10 score for this little beauty not only for its dead sexy good looks but for the innovative idea of coming up with a fan with such a cool built in feature.
