Winterlight,
Thanks for the link to Maximum PC and the "swiffer" mention.
Know this is an old thread (1/30/10), but thought I'd share my testing.
Of course, Lian-Li did not answer me at all via email. No, not yet
grumpy enough to phone their SoCAl number. Just call me lazy.
Fine.
Finally found some Swiffer Sweeper (unscented) replacement sheets. They
are larger than necessary, but easily cut down to fit the Lian-Li filter
frame. In test now. So far, the test machine is still showing its'
nominal case temps. So, I postulate that air-flow thru the case is ~
same........ :)
As soon as I can find "duster" refills, I will test those also. All I
seem to find is "duster" kits. Sorry, I really don't "dust!" LOL!
Of course, I will also try and locally source the OEM foam stuff. No
luck so far. No biggie!
Thanks for the help and suggestion. Right now, it is all GOOD!
Best,
Duncan

dusters work really great.

I have 5 Lian-Li PC69usb mid-tower cases. All purchased in 2001.
Recently, while cleaning a front snap-in-mount air filter, I noticed
that the foam sheet of the air filter sheet is starting to
dis-integrate. It now has a nickel-sized hole in it. The air filter is
~7in x 3.5in. It covers 2 80mm cooling fans.
I need to try and fix this. I'll suppose that the other 4 air filters
will soon start to dis-integrate also........ :(
I've not seen this open-cell-foam sheet at Home Depot, Lowe's, etc.
Spent the morning at the various Lian-Li web sites. No luck on
replacements. Unfortunatly I've lost all of my ? computer parts links
too.
Do you suppose that plastic/fiber-glass window screen would work as a
suitable replacement?
Thanks,
Duncan
