As summer is approaching so is also the heating becoming an increasing problem.
I have two jupiters.
My roommate is no longer happy with running these machines because of the heat. His idea is to place them outdoors, basically on the balcony inside a custom case made to protect the units from rain with a mesh to protect them from bugs etc. I have this gut feeling that it is just a poor idea, I am concerned with mainly moisture (condensation for example), fine dust( pollen for example). My roommate insists what I am wrong about the condensation and moisture, and I can kinda see his point.
As far as I know condensation will only form if the component has a lower temperature than the air blowing on it (and relative humidity comes into play aswell..) . And to his point it is unlikely that the components will have a lower temperature than the outside air. But I still feel like this is a bad idea.
Should I be worried or should I listen to my friend and put the damn machines outside? Please provide arguments for either side, if I am wrong so be it... (although I would prefer to be right
)
The climate is scandinavia. So during the summer it can be anywhere from 8 celsius to 30 celsius.
tldr: Jupiters outside, good or bad idea?
