As noise can be a deciding factor in many people's purchases, it would be very helpful if BRS could include some sort of noise testing for lights/pumps, etc. Decibels at 2 meters away or something like that.
For context:
I'm replacing 3 old XR15 Gen 3's with the new Gen 5's because I was sick of the fan noise. Everyone talked about the new Gen5 fans being custom designed for better cooling, and being able to run them at 40-50% due to the better spread. So I bit the bullet and replaced them, and uggh, the fans kick on and off constantly at 45% intensity with a much louder and more annoying sound than the Gen3's. I'd return these and swap for Kessils, but MD won't take returns on the Radions.
Thanks!
Doug
