Should be pretty sweet

You seem to get ahold of a few of the Cooler Express cases for these, they look really nice for the installs, great sizing.

I used to love blending the gasses to get the best results from them, used to use 290 in the mix to carry oil though, since I was always too lazy to change oil if I could help it. 404 in there makes a real difference though, I liked extending the glide, seemed to make cooldown time and pressure response much better. Smoother.

Looking forward to seeing another one from you been way too quiet in the phase section and your units rock

I work for CoolerExpress so it sort of helps

[Gray Mole]

Ah right, that would kind of help

The venting looks odd from the pics I saw but otherwise they look great. The side venting up front, is it venting the condensor/hot air straight back out the side then?

Hope it means you're getting busy with things again, have you been busy with the other units?

[sdumper]

No things have been pretty slow. I have a lot of people asking me questions but nobody with any money to spend.
Things have really dropped off from last year but I have a feeling Intel/AMD will stir the market soon with some interesting stuff.

[Gray Mole]

Yeah I hope so too.

I mean, I don't really notice it on the sales side like you do since I don't take projects, but the phasechange section is so quiet lately, wish that would change.

If they come up with a cpu that really clocks when it's frozen over air/water, then there should be a lot more action in the refrigerated cooling again That'd be great.

How long you think til you'll get started on this one? Hope it arrives soon

I brazed the accumlator, evap, suction tonight and now I just need to wait for the case/condenser. As soon as it arrives I should have this thing complete in a day and vacuuming. I have built to these specs many/many times before so I don't have to waste time trimming captube and worrying about the right charge or gas combo.

[sdumper]

Case arrived today and will drill holes and mount compressor tonight so that I can hopefully start my vacuum tonight...
Paint is still wet on the compressor but it had a few scrathes in it so I peeled off the stickers and gave it a once over...

That's a pretty nice case and condenser scott

Pressure testing and will vacuum and wire tomorrow.

[sdumper]

Pressure tested at approx 300psi overnight and its airtight so ill vacuum and charge tonight...

I see some sweet toy's ^^

Looks awesome Sdumper! That condenser looks very nice. I remember when coolerexpress first came around, They are still offering units? do they offer individual parts?

Looks like a nice build man! looking forward to results!

[sdumper]

CoolerExpress is in business and is not going to go out of business
I also sell retail CoolerExpress (very strong well built units).

This particular unit was a custom job designed for a specific temp and load.
Target -38c/-40c under full 300+ watt load.

[sdumper]

No load -48c
Loaded over 300 watts: -38c
Ambient 74f (chilly in the house)
Sorry for the camera phone im out of batteries for my nice camera...

[sdumper]

Please excuse the loadtester and resting pad. I have learned to test at different intervals over 3 consecutive days before I ship and it would have been a pain to take off the load tester just to show the finished unit.

[Buckeye]

That came out pretty nice Scott, nice job

[sdumper]

Thanks Bill
