    I've been tempted to build another to replace the one that I no longer have. $8 a month to run at my electric rates. Only thing would be finding heatsinks, those are hard to come by now. But, I might be able to rig something else up, a DIY sort of deal.

    in regards to that - i was thinking i might use some of the socket 604 copper heatsinks (i know they do not fit out of the box) and snapping the mounting legs off then making some new legs out of a threaded bar and some nuts
