Bitfenix Recon Review 21

The Bifenix Recon come in a compact packaging .

Lots of info about the Recon on the box .

Jpeg

The Recon support up to 5 fan to be controlled

This is pretty much what’s inside of the box .

Build quality seems quite flimsy , i suggest to handle with care on the inside part .

Jpeg

The cable are long enough for a standard full tower casing , so you do not have to worry about the cables being too short .

Test Setup

My casing was NZXT H440 so there is no front panel to mount this Recon so i place the recon inside my casing

Jpeg Jpeg Jpeg

Now the problem is when i close my NZXT H440 sidepanel i do not have access to the Recon , and this is where the main feature of Bitfenix Recon come in handy , i can control my fan using the software here :- http://www.bitfenix.com/global/en/products/accessories/recon#support

so if you do not have a front bay in your casing just use your creativity to mount the Recon inside and control it via software .

bitfenix network

To be able to control the Bitfenix Recon via software or mobile device you must have LAN or INTERNET connection , it will very awesome if the Recon can be controlled via Bluetooth instead of using LAN or internet connection .
