No Shit???????????? I'm still right at a pack.

In the file phase now, tedious, very tedious.

That does look tedious Lee. You are a patient man.

 

[laatsch55]

Hmmmmmmmmm..........

That does look tedious Lee. You are a patient man.

Great trait to have if you are a fisherman.

 

[laatsch55]

In the world of the fly fisherman, persistance helps also.

Holy (blank) LEE? I need to change my screen name?! It does NOT suit me compared to YOU?! Nice work!

 

[laatsch55]

Your name is just fine, don't change it for the world.

Nice work Lee! I think I have some copper here but I do have some thick aluminum also. Have to look into this, just a little nervous taking the PL 400 apart to see where I can drill holes safely

 

[laatsch55]

Don't blame ya there. Don't need more holes, use the ones that are there..

 

[Northwinds]

Don't blame ya there. Don't need more holes, use the ones that are there..

I was thinking of something else Lee, wondering if I could incorporate the existing ones also for more surface area. Looking at the amp there is not many options other then bolting doner heatsinks between the fins on each out of some receivers I don't use. Just thinking extra surface area right now. I have no thick sheet copper

 

[Gepetto]

A low speed fan is much more effective than more surface area and no forced convection. Try a 12V fan running on lower voltage, like 7 volts.

Does anybody have a copy of this book?

Kordyban, Tony Hot Air Rises and Heat Sinks: Everything You Know About Cooling Electronics Is Wrong (ASME Press ISBN 0791800741, 1998). [A collection of myths, mistakes, and "lessons learned" from practicing engineers involved in the field of electronic equipment cooling.
