The Sentry Mix consists of a molded plastic body, 6 sliders that control individual 50 watt channels, a custom PCB that controls all the fans and all the required cables to make this unit function.

The PCB is what makes it all happen. There are connectors for each of the 6 fan cables and a separate connection to provide the necessary juice to power the Sentry Mix. The Sentry Mix design is very similar to the Sentry Mesh we reviewed earlier. The major differences are the increase from 30 watt channels to 50 watts, a sixth slider and numeric LCD displays.

These LCD's can be cycled through various colors to accent the look and provide the user with an option over a single color design. The Mesh only needed a single Molex connection but the Sentry Mix actually uses 2. One powers the unit and the 2nd one provides power to the LCD display.

Here we have a shot of the new Sentry Mix beside the previous version the Sentry Mesh. There is really not much difference as far as appearance goes other then the additional slider that controls the sixth fan.
