Bryan,
Neat link.. I haven't drwan up the schematics yet. Still figuring it out as there are so many different parts/areas with the controller I am hoping to build.. Working on it tho..
Reefmaster,
I was wondering about that as well but was thinking that with a good heat sink compound and that the glass will be in contact with teh water on the other side the main worry of the glass cracking is during the initial turn on or heating. Once it is keepng the water temp set it should be fine. But that is what I have figured out. due to the fact that the glass is in immediate contact with the peltier device and the water it shouldn't affect eh efficiency too much.. and as it stands now I don't plan on using this on any large tanks. after all my tank is a 33. For larger uses a larger peltier device is needed.. Mod II.. [img]images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img]
