Thanks for the replies and for the images and tests Rick. I think that any reduction at that level would be worth the trouble for $60 and a fun project. I think the preassembled adafruit model may also be a little more efficient.

Have you measured the temp simply by looking at the reporting in the capture software?

I have looked at a few different DIY projects. The argon idea is a good one.

I also imagine that condensation can be ameliorated by sealing the whole assembly with a moisture proof bag , insulation and desiccant set in the glue/epdm layer and possibly heating of the camera front connector so there is a temperature gradient from ambient at the front to very cold at the back of the camera.
