Installation & test of the Hero Me Gen 5 fan duct upgrade for 3D printers

After installing the Hero Me Gen 5 on my Ender 3, I check the airflow and the noise using a water test then I look at the print quality and the bridging capability.
The Hero Me Gen 5 is a very popular cooling upgrade on Thingiverse, designed by Andrew Soderberg, alias mediaman.
In this video, I concentrate my testing on the dual 5015 fans & dual ducts version.
