Air-cooled pelts?

Interesting thread.

Nice work as ever Silver.

I think you "can" get aircooled TEC to work if you put enough thought into it.

Strapping a 156watt pelt to a SK6 probably wont get you very far.

Its going to have to be the sort of custom sink that silver has described where you make maximum use of the heat moving capacity you have.

Personally the extra effort/expense needed to design such a system is far more than would be taken up by going the traditional 220watt watercooled route.
It is however a very interesting project, id be very interested in seeing it made.
Not to mention other water advantage of reduced noise.
