A Peltier/TEC without some form of heat sink is just a heater. It is just a plate that moves heat from one side to the other (inefficiently.) If you don't cool the hot side, it just keeps getting hotter until the heat can creep back to the cold side.Ah, I needed to look at the design more carefully. I thought it was a fan and heat sink which would require channels for air movement rather than employing TEC and the description is a bit confusing suggesting that there is a fan which blows air through channels in the camera body. So, is it a TEC, a TEC with a fan, a heat sink with a fan, or something else? Personally, I'm not a "fan" of an open system with channels which could accumulate, dirt, debris, moisture, etc.
