I think that there would be a temperature gradient between the sides of the heat/coldspreader. The second set of TECs will be cooling absolutely nothing besides the copper below them. Surely it would be cooler than the CPU side.
As far as insulation goes, I have the world's largest supply of neoprene too! I ran across a HUGE amount of it at an auction for $20 so I bought it. The little lady doesn't like it that I'm a pack rat, until she needs something that she can't find anywhere else and I say "oh, I've got one of those!". I'm going to have to buy a larger house for all the crap I have, I know I'm going end up using every bit of it at some time or other. :shrug:
It's a shame that I can't make homemade heat pipes with the (phase change) material inside, I have some interesting ideas for that too.
