April 4th 2015 - Rough Peltier Cell Cooling Experiment
A very rough and ready bench test in Adelaide April 4 at 05:00pm temp 21.2C Rel Hum 44% Barometric pressure is 1014.9 hPa Dew Point is 8.7C . I'm running a 12V 36W peltier cooler and fan on heat sink. At only 5V 1.3A it sustains a temperature of 3C and droplets of water form after 10 minutes.
