Has anyone that you have seen come out with any disruptive peltier devices?

I did a bunch of trials one summer testing a variety of methods
including heat shields, exterior insulation, interior insulation,
convection ventilation, forced ventilation, peltier effect active cooling.
#1 by a long shot is painting the enclosure bright white.

sunlight?
1. Add a thermostatically controlled ventilation fan
2. Put a heat shield up on the south side of the enclosure. This can be
just a plate of aluminum, painted white on the sun side, and mounted to
the enclosure with 1" standoffs
We have a site like yours, and just the fan keeps the temperature below
120° F (49° C). I think if we added the heat shield we could drop it
another 10° F.

I’ve got a few side of the house enclosures exposed to direct sunlight
part of the day.
Inside the electronics are about ready to melt. Like 90C+ CPU temps.
These are about 3’ x 3’ x 12 deep or something like that, so not a lot
of room.
What are you guys using to keep these things decently cool?
