but it won't react unless both pelts fail, cause even 1 172watt pelt will certainly keep it under 57C.

I'll probly put one on each cold plate anyway just cause MECI has a minumum order thing of $20.

I'm trying to figure out how to cut off the Pelt PS after I shutdown the computer.

it can't be a simple relay, cause the ps_ok line will rely on the Pelt PS being on. So I can't just run a relay off the 12V of the computer to keep the Pelt PS on.(IE, pelt PS is on first)

Im gonna open up mspaint and figure this out. I think I've got it in my head, just need to make sure.

ok, got it, the grey blocks are relays, the green circles are temp switches.

this setup should keep the kiddies from turning something on with out the other.

I'll have to hold the pelt PS button in and then hit the computer on button to get everything up.
