Thanks as usual, I'm always late at finding the nice Forums....

nope it won't shut the computer down, only the power to the Tec's get switched off........ I know, it sounds like an very dangerous thing to do, but because the shutdown time will only last for a couple of seconds, until the Mosfets cool down to below the threshold.... now this power oscillation will cause the cpu temp to go up and down, obviously........... I use this then, along with MBM's protection facility to trigger the alarms...... Do also keep in mind.... this is the last line of defense.... as the mosfets get cooled by the same water that goes through the block on the TEC, MBM will go squealen, long before this device actually get's activated, but hay you can't have enough protection.... and these little mosfets are damn expensive anyhow they need to be protected too....
