Guys, I normally use r-1150 in 2 stage cascades because frankly its usually pointless to use anything else.
That said I have a client that wishes to use r-23 and also would like it to hold on the contact point -80c under loads ranging from 100 watts to 250 watts.
Given the following properties of both I dont think im going to be able to obtain a guaranteed temp of -80c am I correct?
