a few pelt questions....
ok my pelt setup is almost complete, i just need a few things figured out....
ok first, would two 172 peltiers really make that much of a differance over 1? also, i know you can hook up two pc psu together, but what about gerneral psus, like this one: http://www.mpja.com/product.asp?product=12841+PS lastly, for condensation do i have to isulate the pins? ive heard of people coating their pins with something to insulate them, it that neccesary? thanks -Josh |

yes two would make the temps much better, you'd need two of those psu's for each pelt
it is an idea to insulate the pins, especially if you are after sustained temps below ambient

Might be interested in trying something like that. If your motherboard turns into an ice cube and breaks in half I'll know not to try it. Last edited by ben333; 01-24-2009 at 06:39 PM. |
