    Lazy Sunday (56k warning)

    It was a lazy sunday, was working on my chiller in the garage. But you wont see pictures of that, its a super duper secret. Friend came by, I had one of my compressor test beds sitting around (aka trash chillers) and he just got his new pump for his new chiller so we threw it on for fun. Some things got a little out of hand but all in the name of fun. Enjoy the bullshiit.

















    This rotary is pretty hot, 250F + hot. It vaporized and boiled off chunks of ice in seconds. Cant really touch with bare hands but with a wet napkin you can, it cooks it pretty fast.





    It was hot enough to fry eggs on, but I already had breakfast so I fried some bananas.





    Cooking aftermath







    Well the water + vodka mix started to frezze up so most of it was syphoned out and RV antifreze/water mix was added.











    Haha, no nothing was vented and thats NOT me... friend, he can be scarry at times. I just thought thats a funny caption.





    R134a fun. Filled the waterblock full of r134a, it got pretty frosty. The liquid cooled of too and stopped boiling, flashed now and then to cool of and settled down. Kept the block cold for a long time.








    In the midst of all the fun, spraying just about everything down with the canned 134a my... erm, pants got a bit frosty...

    Oh jesus.

    Anyways, canned air is diflouroethane, r152a not r134a. Canned air would be a little more expensive than it is.

    And you're a freeking dork.

    Well, I was the one who filled that particular waterblock with canned air and that particular can also contains difluoroethane

    I didn't know they made 134a dusters. Interesting.

    Thats also my HD-20 in the pic. I just got it a few days ago. I can't wait to get my chiller going.
