    25mm fan fits nicely underneath using hobby rod ends and stock mounting holes.
    this 5vdc fan also puts out more cfm than standard 40mm 12v fan everyone uses.

    So is this the PCU fan that they promised in Update 11: "1) Because of such amazing backing we are also going to throw in a PCU fan to make for better printing and less filament drag. It will install right next to the hot end. "

    Or was this just an off-the-shelf fan?
