When you get a Watt rated TEC, does that mean anything above that wattage, the TEC is incapable of moving that much heat across itself?
So if you get a 136Watt TEC, and you are trying to cool something that's say 230 Watts output, you are about 106Watts short on your TEC? So in this case the 106Watts is staying on the cold side of the TEC unable to move through, adding to the other heat that keeps piling up on the cold side, eventually leading to devices failure?
Is this very simple scenario correct in theory? and if so if you got a 400 Watt TEC, would it overcome the 230Watt Barrier, and am I able to limit this device to say be a 300 Watt Pelt but limiting the Current/Voltage?
