going to use my thermal camera to check for other hot spots on the stick, as ill be coating the whole think lightly in silicone sealer as i dont want any condensation killing it.
will post more later this week as i continue to make the cooling plate

Small update, the sacrificial 2PAC has arrived today.
Will get on to marking up the copper plates and tapping the mounting holes.
Once that's started, i will post preliminary mounting pics

here is the preliminary test of the TEC mounted on the bottom of the cooler.
needs to be mounted a little stronger, but a nice check to make sure everything fits before i start maing a mount for it.
