What forum for Peltiers?
Hey guys I was just wondering if there is a better forum for asking peltier
questions? I have another problem. I hooked up and tried both peltiers independantly, the power supply I used was an Antec True Power 480. Which should have enough power to run 1 peltier. What I did was clipped a spare molex power add on cable I had and spliced the peltier in. I hooked the yellow wire (12V) to the positive side, and one of the black (ground) wires to the negative side I jumpered the ATX connector to turn on the PSU. Well both my peltiers did the same thing, they get EXTREMELY hot on the hot side, but the side that is supposed to cool got about 5 degrees F, less than room tempature. So I let one run for 6 hours thinking maybe it just needed time to warm up? Oh and yes I did have a heatsink on them, it is one made specifically for this peltier. Any ideas? -TIA Chris |
