It did work but you have to trim some of the body of this kit. I have installed in my 2007 honda accord it work good but the bottom storage box i had to order separately. Factory default door won't work with that. You have to buy separate storage box that can go with that.

My first panel did not work properly but was promptly replaced and now works fine. This was on a manual system not the automatic.

I did not have any issues with the ac, the only diff is now I don't have the max button. But my ac is still pretty cold without it.

As for me i have no problems. Ive had it almost a year & everything been working well since day one. I dont know what to say for other ppl,but for me everything works as they said it should.

The AC works just as it did before I installed it. My two cents worth: even when my Honda Accord was fairly new, the temperature was never totally consistent in the car when the AC was running. The temperature in the car would vary slightly...a little warmer, then a little colder, then the temp would be what I set it at, etc. Not HUGE swings in temps but hopefully you get the picture. Like I say, the AC didn't work any differently after I installed this unit.

Yes, This is not a portable hard drive, so it does require ac. I have been using this product for the last 6 months, and I have no problems with it.

The AC/DC questions is kinda important before I order this thing to use in Europe. So if anyone can check their adapters for that, I'd be very happy :-)

It's been working well for me running 24/7. It throws some heat but it's only around 75 degree's, maybe 80 at the maximum. I run an A/C in the same room so it's no problem for me. I'm very satisfied with it, just a word of caution though if you don't want to run it 24 hours a day, then you may want to run it on a timer, it's built in timer function doesn't seem to be well thought out. Hope this helps.

I set up my AC, tried your situation and have the same results, I think it is working fine. I would suggest that you wait for the cooling temp get to the point that the compressor turns off and see if the fan cycles like it should. Good luck.

This device does, indeed, work well on AC. There is an adapter in the box. I've been using my box almost daily since I got it. I keep it on at least 5-6 hours each day. I used the AC adapter once after the battery died. The battery will recharge while using the adapter.

Hi Seth.I red some bad reviews about this computer too.But these are not about reviewed this computer.More like sellers. I guess I got lucky. Mine is all fine as I wrote my review about this computer. This computer is hard working machine! !

The airflow is actually pretty good. You can install two fans on top pushing air out. You can install fans in front pulling air in. There are gaps with vents along the top and in the front that do not look like they allow much flow, but they are just fine. The power supply in this case is installed upside down as there is a vent on the bottom. If you did not turn it upside down, I would recommend it.

It's been running perfectly for over 3 months in my build. I even upgraded my CPU a month ago to an AMD FX-6300, and my performance is much better than the older AM3 quad-core I had in it originally. The only reason you see so many negative reviews are people who either don't know what they are doing, or are upset at what they purchased. I can tell you from my own personal experience, being in the computer business and a hobbyist for over 30 years that this motherboard and most of the Gigabyte boards are high quality and very reliable. Hope this helps you decide.

AC is also supported. The Amazon tech spec options have not been updated since this is a fairly new standard.

When mine was working (it really is not a good product - spend more to get something of value) it worked with 2.0 devices as well as 3.0 devices. The AC power is to provide full power to power hungry devices like external hard drives and printers. These devices need more power than simple flash drives and the more devices you plug in the less there is to go around. Think of what happens when you open every faucet in your house and then flush the toilet. Your "bandwidth" of water goes down dramatically. The AC power is like a pump to keep the water flowing at full volume.

I haven't had any issues. It works just fine. No worries from my perspective.

AC is fairly quite. I think a lot of the noise issue experienced by window/through wall type units is the result of poor installation around the unit which allows the outside noise to travel inwards. Where I have the unit installed the wall itself is well insulated and the sleeve fits snugly. Overall I am happy with the unit and it cools well.

The only way I can answer this question is..... Ever since I purchased my unit I've been enjoying it to the fullest, the unit works well I haven't come across any problem at all.

I saw this same fix described on another site, and I was excited that it appeared I finally had a solution to my problem (which is that the wireless connection works fine on AC power but is spotty at best on battery power). Then when I went in and made this change and tried unplugging the AC, the problem was still there (maybe not quite as bad but still unacceptable). Mine is Vista though, not Linux btw.
