Hello! i read about these and i will be using one for my extreme watercooling. QUESTION:

does size matter or should i just go with watts? also what wattage would be enough/powerful for my cpu??

[GREENPOWERSCIENCE]

Size and watts are usually in correlation but watts are better.

The only bad thing about this video is fahrenheit :( Grrrr.

Hi, Cant we make a small fridge, with out any moving parts ?

[DBMHTECH]

thats awesome

hey... suppose i place this fixed to some box in a thermal chamber with ambient of 100 C, how effective will the cooling of the box be? my aim is to keep the box as cool as possible coz it contains my electronic circuitry inside it

Could you heat one side and run the power generated back to it to make a never ending flow?

In colder climates would it make sense to wrap your stovepipe (woodburner) to charge your batteries when solar is limited by shorter days? What kind of temp could they handle and are they costly? Thanks for all your research and dedication to education. You and your wife are priceless.

@darendashing As other have said, you can, but these devices use A LOT of electricity. If you want to build a full size fridge, it would cost you a lot in electricity. And you would also have heat to deal with, i would think that because these are meant to both heat and cool, that you'd also get a lot more heat from these then you would from a normal fridge.

Its important to note for everybody interested in a thermoelectric cooler that the voltage generated is proportional to the delta t between both sides. The hotter the hot side, and the colder the cold side = higher voltage production.

how much for this size of thermoelectric cooler?

great video i ordered too of these for a mini fridge im gonna be making and now im gonna be using one to power my ipod charger off the heat my xbox makes and great idea for a video for you a laptop that uses no electricety use a couple of these to power the laptop from the heat

[coltesgaming]

@darendashing yes you can all you need is a small box which is insulated and a heat sink with fan and one of those and you can make one that will chill a can of soda fairly nice and if you use it with an aluminum can it will cool it greatly cause it will act as a sort of heat sink and draw greater heat from the can
