In the bedroom TV cabinet, besides the rats nest of power cable and strips, we had a Dish Hopper 3,
two Dish Joeys, a router, an air-card amplifier and the control for the Winegard Trav'ler dish. Way too much heat trapped behind the TV. We needed an exhaust fan. |

 |
The cabinets in the Bounder are like typical RV cabinets. The floors and walls are
hollow made from thin plywood over frames. We cut a hole in the cabinet floor and the underside of the cabinet. |

The space between the floor and lower side of the cabinet is 1.5". We used stacked 3/4" square dowel stock glued together along the sides of the hole for the fan. We did this to strengthen the floor and to have material to screw into for to secure the fan. | |
 |
We used the same fan, AC Infinity AIRPLATE S3 6" fan that we used for the pantry cabinet for the computer. | |

We reversed the fan in the housing so that it blows down when mounted on top of the cabinet floor. | |
 |
We blackened the exposed wood edged before we mounted the screen plate on the underside of the cabinet. | |

The power for the fan is USB so we used one of the power ports in the USB power hub we had installed to cleanup the cable clutter. | |
