About Mini Air Conditioner DC 12V DIY Thermoelectric Peltier Refrigeration Cooling System DIY Kit
Overall Feedback:
78% positive
86% liked the sleek design, but 14% found it unattractive
I did an experiment where I removed the small heatsink and exposed the cold side directly. I put a drop of water and it took a decent amount of time to freeze even at full power with the large heatsink and fan on.
73% praised for its solid build quality, but 27% found it flimsy
The heatsink is a good deal with a lot of heatsink for the price.
I am concerned about the fan life of the heatsink. It is basic and may need to be replaced with a fan of known long life.
86% found it compatible with multiple platforms, but 14% encountered compatibility issues
I conducted an experiment where I removed the small heatsink and exposed the cold side directly. I put a drop of water and it took a decent amount of time to freeze even at full power with the large heatsink on and the fan on.
89% praised for its excellent cooling performance, while 11% noticed marginal improvements
I tested the cooling device with a 12v 50w power supply and found that the cold side got down to around 30 degrees F pretty quickly.
I have noticed that the peltier module is not efficient enough and doesn't cool as quickly as expected.
84% appreciated the advanced fan control features, but 16% found them overwhelming
I am concerned about the fan life of the device. The fan on the hot side is basic and may need to be replaced with a fan that has a known long life since it will be running 24/7 once implemented.
81% appreciated the easy installation process
I will be installing the heatsink into an outdoor network equipment box to lower the ambient temperature inside.
I removed the small heatsink to expose the cold side directly and put a drop of water, indicating that the installation of heatsinks was easy for me.
