Nyko Addresses Xbox 360 Intercooler Problems

Nyko Addresses Xbox 360 Intercooler Problems
Published by dangermouse on Tuesday, November 14, 2006

Addressing recent reports that its cooling device Intercooler 360 is defective, Nyko today pledged to replace any Xbox 360s that have been damaged by the accessory.



Nyko's Intercooler is causing problems for a few Xbox 360s

In a press release issued today, Nyko said it would stand by its Xbox 360 Intercooler accessory "100 percent." While pledging to take the claims seriously, Nyko also describes recent reports of defective Intercooler units breaking Xbox 360s as an "isolated incident."

Because the fan peripheral saps its power directly from the Xbox 360, there have been concerns that the Intercooler 360 could cause damage to the console. Recent posts on some gadget blogs have shown Intercoolers discoloring and, in some cases, breaking Xbox 360s. Outside of images and testimonials, however, it's not known how many units could be affected.

Nyko notes that "a small percentage of all products suffer from defects," and that the Intercooler 360 is "less than half the average for consumer electronics products." Nyko is also pledging to replace damaged Intercooler 360s, as well as Xbox 360 consoles, "upon first-hand verification that the Intercooler 360 caused the system to fail."

The Intercooler 360 ($24.99) has shipped over 500,000 units, according to Nyko. It works by adding additional exhaust fans to the hot-running Xbox 360 in order to, in Nyko's words, "help consumers lengthen the lives of their Xbox 360s."
