Air flow

I was looking at Aspire One A110 review by laptopmag on YouTube.

At 3:37 he flipped it over and there are holes in the fan circle. Take a look.

 

Old news, I'm afraid.

Popular opinion says that it's better if air is pulled in only through the grille at the front of the case as it should help to cool the wifi card.

 

I don't that it was a modded One because they're doing a review (Laptop Magazine), why would they even bother doing that? Just take a look.

 

those holes look factory cut, or laser cut..theyre not just holes..theyre kind of oval and they match the speaker holes..thats weird.. : / never seen that before. also the guy pointed at the battery stating that the speakers were there and not at the front holes.. :?

 

also, look at this

do you see the sticker for the battery that says 4400mah samsung..

can you get a 4400 mah battery for the same size as a 2200mah? :?:

 

Probably a pre-production prototype sent out for early review. They probably changed the ventilation design after wifi card meltdown in the prototypes.

That's not production labelling. Note the reddish, circular, handwritten sticker that reads "5 C sample".

 

No, a 4400mAH would have to be a 6-cell. Largest production capacity for a 18650 size cell is 2900mAH at the moment, as used in the 6-cell 5800mAH batteries shipped with some early D150 models.

F**ked up battery labels seem to be a common problem. I should know, I recently bought a 5200mAH 6-cell from Hong Kong that turned out to be 4400mAH...
