    Glad you can see some merit in what I'm saying and are even willing to give it a try.

    I would almost be offended by your statement about people "who 'didn't know any better' " except I entirely agree. It can be a pain when 9/10 of those people are not suggesting anything sensible and you start to just dismiss them.

    However, I would like to point out that I didn't stumble on the idea of running lower voltages out of chance, I did a whole load of reading and computer simulations first.

    I'm looking forward to your results. I did a similar experiment with a water loop on the cold side to measure how quickly the water temp dropped. However mine was not as controlled as Id have liked and I had the added variable of the pumps heat load.

    no offense meant at all - the 'experienced' people are often the first to dismiss a potentially good idea. I was only saying that many - maybe a majority - of innovative ideas come from people who are not 'experts'. For example almost all of the great discoveries of the 19th century were done by people who were not 'experts' but just had an interest in the problem, and the energy to go after a solution.

    I will test your low voltage approach and give you some feedback, but can't do it for a few weeks as I am traveling...
