HEYLICOOL PS5 Stand Cooling Fan with RGB,PS5 Accessories for Playstation 5/PS5 Slim Console Disc or Digital with Dual Controller Charging Station-3 Level PS5 Cooling Fan with Headset Holder,3 USB Hub
I bought this for My PS5 Slim Digital edition and it’s been excellent. Also fits the bigger models and disc editions with . Looks great and works so well, I’m made up with this.
This is a great bit of kit for a PS5 – though I can’t comment on whether the additional cooling power is of any benefit or not.
It can take some wriggling to get the PS5 onto the stand but once on it doesn’t wobble or feel unstable. The controllers fit in well but it’s a perfect fit, so I imagine that any attachments on top of your controllers might prevent it from fitting.
I’ve not had any problems with it and it feels like reasonably good quality for the price. As above I can’t say if it makes any difference, but it’s certainly handy for the charging alone.
I got my other half a Playstation 5 for Christmas, bit I was always tripping over the controllers he left lying around because they were on charge.
With the PS5 stand, this is no longer an issue. It is very easy to set up, the controllers sit in the charging points quite nicely.
The stand can be powered either directly from the mains, or from the PS5 itself. We tend to just have it powered by the PS5, so one controller is always being charged when it is on and the other is being used.
The stand itself is coloured like the PS5, so it doesn’t look out of place. For the price, it is a decent piece of kit.
This stand has a mostly matte finish with a gloss strip around the middle. The bracket to make it compatible with the original PlayStation 5 disc and digital versions is pre installed and has to be pried off to use it with either of the ‘Slim’ PlayStation 5s. It is fitted firmly and need quite a bit of effort to get it off.
The stand comes with a screw to hold the console to the stand, it also has rubber feet to help keep it in place.
The fan speed is controlled by a physical button and has a display to show what speed is currently selected, it is reasonably quiet whilst running. The stand can charge 2 controllers at the same time and the controllers are charged via contact pins on an adapter you put into the controllers USB C port, which should limit any damage to the port.
You get 4 adapters so you can have 4 controllers ready to charge via the stand. The stand charges each controller at 5v1a, with a maximum power draw of 5v2a.
However there are a few cons I need to mention. First the green light that shows a charged controller stays on even when no controller is in the charge bay, and it’s quite bright in a dark room.
Second the charging cable is hard wired to the stand, meaning if it gets damaged you won’t be able to replace it. I wish it was attached via a USB C port so the controller wire could have been used. Though as the console is screwed to the stand it should be pulled.
Lastly the cable is around 50cm which is more than enough if you use the console to charge it. However if you want to charge it via a plug the cable is far to short. As such you would be better off setting up you console to still power the USB ports whilst in rest mode.
