Technology Connectionslet's learn why Peltier devices are not actually very cool in this new video:

@TechConnectify Did you see that LTT video like a year ago where they tested the latest attempt to use this effect for CPU cooling? It was also terrible. ^_^
Wheeze_NL@moira "there is alia video on the topic" should never be a reason not to make a video 😊
@wheeze_NL That's not what I'm saying, though - I mean, the use cases being described are completely different. It's more a YEP THEY SURE ARE TERRIBLE xD kind of thing.
The only reasonable use case I've found for any peltier cooling kit has been as a replacement/augmentation for a passive cooler in a car. I have one, it _wasn't_ a super-cheap model (tho' I got it for free via credit union rewards points) and so it's actually not loud even with its fan. If you throw in a small plastic-wrapped ice block on top, you get many, many hours more useful time out of a portable cooler. So if you're on the road for hours (in our case, if you're a touring band on the road), it actually becomes useful. And he talks about that.
@moira I am sorry for misinterpreting your message.
They suck indeed
