Two Radiators....

[Maximus Nickus]

Ok, I have one 150Watt+ Radiator, and I'm buying an Extreme Copper 600Watt+ Radiator (over twice the power of a Black Ice extreme) should I use them both?

I'm thinking that if it disperses that much heat then it should never go above ambient... (can cool 3x156Watt Peltiers and an 1800+!!!) but hey, two better than one!

nick - most heatercores are rated for 600Watt+ and a alot cheaper

 

[Maximus Nickus]

Yes but finding a heatercore is HARD!

And this rad is only £28! So sohuld i join them both? Series or paralell? I mean as I'm running in paralell I could have a Rad for each!!

What's Xtremem radiator?

 

[Yodums]

It would make barely any difference. I've seen an article on the frontpage where the guy runs through like 6 different radiators for 3-4 degree loss. You'll have to put up with more noise as well.

you dont have a salvage yard around?.......

 

[Maximus Nickus]

Sorry spelling

For some reason here in the UK NO-ONE knows what a Heatercore is, I get glib remarks like "you want a Radiator?" and "Oh aircon cooling" man where can I get one?

All I need to know is what types of car there in (diesel petrol etc) and where!!!

lol so funny

Max, before you post get some numbers. blackice prime 418w and blackice extreme is 919w.

 

[Lt. Max]

woah , BI xtreme 919 W?? better then heatercore then no?

 

[Diggrr]

No, the Big Momma, an admittedly smaller sized heater-core was rated at 1300 watts. My Ford one is rated at 1500...BIX is nice, and very compact, but it can't beat a heatercore.

Were did you get THOSE numbers from???
I got my numbers off a respected retailer. They said it was 300Watts, and this Radiator which I might get is 600Watts.

Heres a pic. Its 240mm x 120mm
Is it any good? Thanks!
