Here's a quick question for the pelt guys here. Skee^ asked about running the block with the pelts off, and you told him that won't work since the pelt is an insulator when it's off. Here's the question I have: could you set a voltage for the pelt that would allow it to adequately move the heat through it while maintaining a low delta T (i.e. simulate an "off" condition with a much lower voltage than normal operation)?
