| Due
to popular request we have built this miniaturized
ion cooler as a second step in its evaluation.
We chose to use an external design for several
reasons, all of which mitigate concerns
from people on our initial prototype. One
of the biggest concerns was with regards
to the air moving through the computer possibly
having a imbalanced electrical charge or
alternately producing to much ozone and
possibly damaging components in the system.
By mounting the unit at the rear of the
case with it sucking air out of the case
we are able to still achieve beneficial
results and address these issues. The rig
overall is basically the same as in the
initial tests with one change that we used
a more standard PC case with a normal 2
fan push pull type arrangement.
