Brendan, I generated the latest BOM from the schematic and will double-check each part and update my list with the plan to order the missing parts and then ship you spares. I assume we won't be making many more changes to the parts...
Also we could use a boost DC-DC converter instead of a buck converter, i.e to increase the voltage for the Peltier instead of going down. Efficiencies are usually similar but higher voltage means lower current for the pins for the same power. It all depends on the choice of Peltier...
edit:
I keep forgetting to mention this, running cam86 from 7.6V or 8V may not be simple as such power supplies do not exist (unless we build a power supply ourselves). On the other hand 9V power supplies can be bought off the shelf and would make life much simpler.
