On the topic of testing TEC blocks, would they be measured with a negative C/W? I'm sure this is a dumb question, but I was just curious. I would figure that the C/W value might not be good for anything but what you can achieve at that wattage the CPU dissipates, as the TECs effeciency changes based on temps, and as you inched closer to the maximum amount of heat the TEC can pump.

Did any of that make any sense? :shrug:

Thanks,
