DIY Cooler (Part 2) Peltier Module Harry: I think a more efficient way to cool it would be with a cheap custom built liquid cooler using distilled water. It is more slim and will likely cool the liquid slower as water is polar and temp resistant. Meaning you can leave the pump and loop off for longer saving more power and thus increasing efficiency. Also getting slimmer more dense foam would allow more inner space for cans and would make the walls thinner but equally effiecient. Also a cool touch would be adding a switch on the door the powers 3v led strips on the inside to add a bit of light when the door is opened. Overall though I was very impressed. Great video!

like you, i'm always thinkering around, figuring how stuff work and try to replicate it with mostly recycled stuff laying around, even my breadboard is a diy, made from old ide connectors. XD and the more stuff i see you make, the more im starting to wonder, if you're like a lot of inventer/thinkerer(myself included, how many other projects do you have laying around that you started, but putted aside because of another idea or simple discouragment. if you do have some, it could make an interrersting video one day titled what does it take to discourage GreatScott! XD

What if we had a 'heat' sink on the cold side with a small fan to blow the cool air in that small area? Would help cause the room in there be cool faster?
I ask because I plan on doing a project extremely similar to this but with a few 'twists' and additions.

Far better than useing a big motor/compressor and using mains power. Solar power could keep precious items cold. On hot days. Good work. Om. de kv4li ps 4 wire phone wire or cat 5 cable could be the best as it's cheep and reliable.

Not your usual level of precision here. I get that the concept itself of a peltier fridge doesn't screams for efficiency, but damn, here we have a 10% efficiency at best considering all the thermal impedance.

Very nice. A suggestion that can make a difference; instead of using two peltier this way, use both of them in series on top of each other and you will get much better cooling and lower power consumption. ;)

That process ( cooling ) has always low efficiency. Just because you need to give more electrical power than the thermal energy extracted from the environment. Anyway, thumbs up! Great job!

the problem with inserting the heat sink of the hot side in the foam, air efficiency become poor, to get good and lower temps you need to keep the hot side cold, or improve heat dissipation

When you paint an edge of mdf use a celulose laquer, simply spray those edges and sand them 2 times and then you can prime and paint them and edges looks smooth and with no weird texture.

Bro how about using 10 of those to cool a rectangular cabin of length 2m1m0. 5m with water cooling on the heat side. Is it feasible? How much will it save power than a regular split ac
