Hi I wanna buy some Prometeia or Vapochill or whatever .. but I still go to school and I'm a poor pupil, so what did you pay for your cooling and are ther any cheap alternatives to build it by yourself.

Basics of it is - Promi or Vapochill cost whatever someone is selling em for 2nd hand, which is usually in region of £250 for a MkI and £450 to 500 for a MkII.

HomeMade CAN be much cheaper but requires a LOT of skill when it comes to engineering - ie: soldering, braising, your own refrigeration gauges, vac pump, gas etc etc.
