dang- no spell check

the road less traveled by...
ahhh.. someone else who has traveled this road. Yeah- the peltier blocks seem to do what they need to do and are not for our application; but I refuse to give up.
I'm now convinced that utlizing the A/C lines is the way to go. Use the JLP supercooler thingy as the resevoir. This is where I'm not sure ,but ,here goes.
Put a radiator of sorts ?in? the resevoir- run the ac lines through it? So it would be radiator to liquid cooling type setup?
Since a/c coolant is measured in psi - it should be easy to put the proper amount in refrigerant in the ac after the fact.
I should have never been a computer geek; having more fun with these ideas...

... and that has made all the difference.
