One idea I just came up with thanks to mo is to use a submerged radiator in a containter of water that is cooled by pelts on say a HeatSink.

Imagin you have an aluminum box filled with water. One side you have a radiator sitting in the water. In the middle you have say two or three old PII heatsinks with pelts underneath. Pelts are cooling the PII heatsinks and the heat is being removed via separate loop. Other side, you have a pump, wheel, what-ever sturring the water up a bit so that water is passing over the heatsinks then flowing throught the radiator and circulating back around the outside of the box. INSULATE THE BOX!!!

I know that this is not the most effecient way of using pelts BUT its an idea.

Sorry in advance mo if this is what you were talking about earilier.
