Forget cooling, I trained my Blockraptor to use the heat for frying eggs and cats:
That's a lot of work for 330Mh. Points for originality though!

Haha I like!
Is it even still profitable to mine with BEs?
I'm not sure they ever were. But they have blinky lights, so it's OK.
I don't really see the point of cooling them...
Mind you, I have them in a fairly cold room to begin with (< 60F)

Fans dont really work i tried usb case fans, flexible fans, and desk fans they still get hot.
So? Mine are just sat beside the Corsair CX750 PSU that runs my Blades. The slight breeze of it's 140mm fan is enough.

I use USB fans and Hub for block erupter usbs cooling.
using both stick-on small heatsinks on the component side to cool the Asic and a couple of USB fans helps keep my USB BE's much cooler to the touch than running them uncooled.
put them outside (remember to protect them from rain)
I have been running this without using fans, leaving little space for heat out since 24 September 2013, at this moment, There is no question about all as the aluminum plate protects the circuit not to be over heat
One more thing, 900 J KG/K and 1000 KG/K, the fan is meaningless, just need an open space to finish it, I think the 10 in a row, leaving little space, should not be problem as 3W is so small.

in my experience a little bit of airflow does a lot. these things are stable even when hot though so dont be too worried. alternatively, attach some small heatsinks to either the stock plate, or atop the asic chip
hi guys i have a rig of 20 block erupters on 2 10 port hubs but i need something to cool them to the max. Fans dont really work i tried usb case fans, flexible fans, and desk fans they still get hot. The only thing that worked for me is putting the block erupters on a vent with ac on but its winter now. Whats a good way to cool them to the max. As i want them to be as efficient as possible and have a long life
