Aquaero! Their pricey but nothing else like them on the market at the time. I got a 5LT (one with no screen or pwm) for 45$ on OCN's classifieds.

What fans do you have, how have you been trying to control them, and what headers are you powering them from?

Aero cool dead silence red led fans. I had a fan controller, it broke. my fans are 3 pin and I am using 3 pin headers. (MSI Gaming 5 motherboard)

I have never seen that one, is it specifically made for like a fish pond or something? I could see me hacking into that with some cool add ons since its fully programmable and I think open source? It could actually be used in quite a lot of different things, I only see the LCD one tho, can u shoot a link to the one u have? Also does the one u have also come with the IR remote?

Made specifically for watercooling could be used in lots of ways though. The software (aquasuite) is very intuitive and useful. Im no programmer so I know nothing of being able to add on to it, but I imagine it could do just about anything you need it to, as it comes.

There are several versions, the 5lt has only 1 fan pwm circuit (the rest are volts) no screen or ir transmitter, though you can add one on i believe. The 6 has a couple versions too, I think one has a couple extra buttons and comes with the remote. I'm just getting into the aquaero world so I'm not 100% on any of this info so double check it before you buy!
