The high end expensive TECs (the best ones from Koolatron) are rated to keep the inside 45 to 50 F below or 80 to 100 above ambient. http://koolatrononline.stores.yahoo.net/koolatron-p75-thermoelectric-digital-precision-control-tc2.html Just a note on the stiffener piece. Put it on the inside of the tub. On one of them I cut down the metal cover from a Radio Shack project box. There are battery saver gizmos that plug between the 12V socket and the cooler, they cut off at 11~11.5 volts. --- This email is free from viruses and malware because avast!
