Interesting idea.

The main purpose though, is making sure that a Pelt won't fry the CPU, and we're getting that by measuring the temp of the cold plate (aka spacer).

In order to add a provision to stop the pump (under those conditions), we'd have to add a differential pressure sensor, and I don't think we really want to go that route here.

I've been examining that option though, and it's possible.
