The NexStar HX features a 60mm cooling fan with an On/Off/Variable switch. You can adjust the fan speed to optimize cooling performance and noise levels. For sustained high-performance use or in warm environments, it is recommended to set the fan to a higher speed. For lighter use, a lower speed or off setting may be sufficient.
