    Be mindful not to cover ventilation opening on new power-bars

    A few nights ago I decided to stop procrastinating and install the new model Apex. And while not wanting to turn this into a build thread I thought it would be worth mentioning is that unlike the old EB8s, the new 832s have a small active fan for what I assume is cooling the internal power supply. Be very mindful of your wiring so as not to cover this small vent opening.

    This is a great point, and important to bear in mind when mounting. Leaving adequate clearance is covered in the Apex Get Started Guide, the EB832 User Guide, and in the printable EB832 mounting template.
    Please do not send me PMs with technical questions or requesting assistance - use the forums for Apex help. PM me ONLY if the matter is of a private or personal nature. Thanks.
