Thanks for the help guys. I already am playing with my little 24 watter (which from the prices even DD sells their biggest I got ripped off...$20) and its quite fun. I would keep it on all the time but I fear not having adequate cooling. If say the heatsink fell off (not even possible, its lying on a heatsink) whats the worse that will happen? Also if I get one I need to figure out how to do get my damn spir@l on it, or ill have to pay MORE to get the TEC holddown plate for my not as awesome maze4. decisions, decisions.
/edit: this is the biggest I can find on ebay;
