Danger Den to cease trading

[xelosia]

Water cooling hardware manufacturer Danger Den announced yesterday that is is to cease trading. A notice on the company's website states that the owners will be pursuing other interests.

The statement reads:

'After 12 years our hobby has come to an end.

It’s time to pursue other interests and Danger Den will be closing its doors.

Thank you for all your support over the years,

we’ve enjoyed being part of your modding community.

~ Dan, Jeremy, Dennis, and Rokk'


Another statement mentions that from Halloween till 5th November, there will be a 75 per cent reduction in all sales.

Danger Den has been trading for twelve years, being registered in 2000 by Jeremy Burnett, Dennis Leach, and Dan Stephens. The company was one of the pioneers of off-the-shelf water-cooling components with waterblocks such as the Maze and RBX proving very popular.

The company also branched out into graphics card waterblocks, cases and reservoirs amongst other things and its products were available around the world.

Here's a small tribute to some of the great products Danger Den has sent our way over the years.

This is from trying to get to DD website. lol

"Sorry the servers are slammed... We can help answer any questions at the Danger Den Facebook page while access is limited."

Man... thats really sad news to hear.. I've been using Danger Den products for a while and they are one of my preferred manufactures..

That's a long time to trade and then quit.
They deserve to retire (or just stop this) though.

On the bright side, 75% off is one hell of a deal !

lol...if you can get on their site to place the order.

I'm kinda surprise to found out DD is closing the business since they just came out the funky fittings, bad ass D5 reservoir and new M6 block.

One down, many to go. If the worst WaCo company in each country shut its doors, we'd be better off. Medium quality goods could then become the bottomline standard, and new ultra quality goods would form the top. Hopefully Korea or Slovenia are next.

DD always had vision, and that was respectable, but the finished product never impressed me. Not going to miss them.

Just placed an order for six 1/2" Fat Boy fittings, six 3/8" Fat Boy fittings 40' blue of tubeing, and 4 bottles of PT Nuke for $22.50, 3 day shipping came out to $22.15, so all in all that's really good deal

Nice Stan,

yea last night I logged on while I was still at work was able to order 8 silver coils/strips, and 2 of the new dual bay res. they had released not long ago, all came to $41.xx shipped with 3 day shipping.
I tried to add some tubing to my cart, but everytime I did it would time out.. I may try to order some more stuff today is any of it is still available.. lolz

[Deton]

the rediculous thing is the shipping cost more than the actual products, it's better to order it in one shot.

[Solara2xb]

shipping for my order wasn't that much, But think its because my zone of shipping is the same since were on the west coast..

Waco is a specialized business, the piece of pie is very small in this segment, if you don't go mainstream or keep the production cost down or not global market it then you won't last.
DD builds almost everything in their own backyard, they ain't global marketing.

Why you think EK is bad, because they had a bad year?

Koolance....because of Korean company?
If that's the case then you left out Swiftech.

Kenny, I might me able to send you some of the blue tubing I ordered, would 10' be enough ?
