Doesn't water just run through a manifold that is cooled by a fan blowing across cooling fins?

 

[AQD_ottawa]

no,

Peltier works in a completely different way.

This unit also heats

 

[shutterpunk]

Take a look at this for a beter explanation

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peltier_cooler

 

[Freed]

OK, so blow air one way to cool and blow it the other way to heat?

 

[shutterpunk]

Not quite, more like apply an electrical current in one direction cool, apply it in the opposite direction to heat. Forget the heatsink and fan, thats to make the unit more efficient and to remove any excess heat/cold etc

 

[shutterpunk]

BTW that wasnt meant as a detailed technical explanation, more an easier way to visualise how it works.

 

[Freed]

Got it. Thanks. Either way I'm sure they will overpriced for most hobbyists to even think about buying anyway.
Wayoutofyourpricerange heating and cooling gadget.

I do like the idea of not using harmful chemicals like freon, etc to operate it though.

Not quite what you base such a bold statement on to be honest freed?!

GHL would not spend thousands developing a product that would be over priced, that would make no sense, they never have done this before and I can assure you not about to start now.

Most everything in the hobby is overpriced for the average hobbyist. You do some checking and get back with me. Pickling lime at the LFS $15-$20/lb when anyone can get the same stuff in bulk for $0.50/lb. The list can be endless if you look it up.

Still I do like the idea of the environmental friendly cooling

 

[Freed]

A powerhead that sticks to the inside of your tank with a magnet on the outside for $300-$400? Please.

 

[AQD_ottawa]

Anwyay back to names guys.

I still like the GeoTherm, sort of comes off the tongue, technical sounding enough and has a good ring to it.

 

[Freed]

My choice so far is shake and bake
