*BLINK*

So, you're installing multiple units across 15 sites for a hotel chain... a rather \
important installation I would expect given the potential ramifications to operations \
as well as guest access... and your long term solution is to use USB powered fans?

As noted by others, given you can build/buy less expensive equipment, not wrought \
with heat/cooling problems, it might be a good idea to properly spec out and procure \
new hardware. In your shoes, I would not be moving forward with the current \
equipment.
