About HiLetgo 2pcs TEC1-12706 Semiconductor Refrigeration Tablets
Overall Feedback:
76% positive
80% liked the sleek design, but 20% found it unattractive
I noticed that the cold side of the heatsink has the printing on it and the hot side is blank.
The cold side of the heatsink has printing on it and the hot side is blank.
75% praised for its solid build quality, but 25% found it flimsy
I used a 50x50x20mm heatsink and a 12V fan in my configuration, indicating the good quality of the heatsink.
After using the product to cool down my GPU, RAM & CPU, I noticed that it damaged my computer parts, possibly due to poor build quality of the heatsinks.
I found that the 12706 can only cool a passive heatsink with no load to 10c, while the 12703 can easily reach at least -2c at half the watts.
I caution others to be careful while using the device as the hot side heats up quickly and may cause burns.
81% found it compatible with multiple platforms
I used a 50x50x20mm heatsink and a 12V fan in my configuration.
I found this device inside the portable cooler/heater and repaired it by buying a set of two.
76% praised for its excellent cooling performance, while 24% noticed marginal improvements
I found that using a 10W power supply and a passive heat sink with a 5V computer case fan worked well for my application. It cooled the cool side about 10-15 degrees F below ambient until the ambient temperature got above approximately 105F, at which point it could not move the heat off the hot side fast enough.
I used the product to cool down my computer parts, but it damaged them after realizing that one of the modules was dead.
My cooling performance with the 12706 is poor as it could only cool a passive heatsink with no load to 10c, whereas the 12703 could easily get to at least -2c at half the watts.
Before installation, be cautious while testing the device as the hot side gets hot so fast that it almost burned my finger.
89% appreciated the easy installation process
I repaired the cooler/heater with the device which was a huge bargain for $8.49 for two.
