A well-made product, but not as cold as I thought.
I just bought this for an electronics project. Construction is of velvet-smooth ceramic with white silicone sealant. Leads are pre-tinned. It feels like a high-quality product. The hot side gets extremely hot. I mean: do not turn it on to even test it without a heatsink, and do not leave it on without a fan. The cold side is pretty cold, but not as extreme as the hot side. You could cool a small, insulated box but no more than that. It does not cool the air inside an uninsulated cardboard box. You will need insulation if you are buying this as a project cooler. I will be abandoning this model and moving to a higher-wattage TEC. Condensation was excessive. Plan to deal with that.
