I need to buy two TEC1-12740, which website sells the best quality?
I am guessing that you are in a country, that will only allow internet purchases from certain web sites, is this correct?
well when your ready to start a new build, start a build log for it as well.
Those aren't bad...but they are no TN669Originally Posted by bobcat1969

Upto 16v, 40A, 400 watts

Apart from the seriously overpriced shipping here & maybe a comparison on Quality, if/when my budget could ever (lol) aafford to start buying cooling gear again,, i'd still buy from Aliexpress, even if i had more money than sense lol
Actually,, if i did have more money than sense,, id buy from both then write up a comparison on quality lol
But as always, take my posts with a pinch of salt & ultimately, its your call
Super-Awesome TEC plates too, a major OMG moment lol !!!
They are MUCH more powerful and efficient then they were 10-15 years agoOriginally Posted by bobcat1969
DROOL !
You guys are LEGENDS !!
Holy Crapola GREAT-SCOT !!!!!!!!!!!
ARGH !
PSU manufacturer's are filthy rich due to our little niche of water chilling lol
China is hell bent on not supplying us with bare-transformers,, at their usual cheaper Aliexpress style pricing, this is the main problem and expense for starting to make ones own PSU... That many Amps, scavengged transformers are close to a Microwave's transformer.. Believe me,, ive tried to look into to create my own high current PSU's, just out of spite because i HATE ANYONE holding a monopoly over making an item that i may need multiple of..
might have to revisit where i left off from and see if thats still the case with transformers..
an old Electrical Engineer friend keeps telling me that Peltiers are terribly inefficient, i know he's right but i dont care - i want water chilling LOL
And i DONT want to get into refrigerant-style due to being in the Rip-off UK, its just gonna cost the same as owning a damn high octane dragster here lol and thats just probably an entry-level chiller that hasnt got any readouts LOL.. well,, not far off i reckon lol
Still - my hats off to you guys here, this is some serious eye candy for me haha more and more impressed with what ya'll are upto day by day
