Cold Finger Cooling Kit - Suit Canon 450D

I am disposing of various parts that I have for cold finger cooling of Canon 450Ds. Some of these parts would suit other Canon or DSLR models as well.
What I am selling here is:

  • One Jaycar 51W/6A TEC unit: ZP9102
  • One DeepCool Gammaxx200 Sintered Heat Pipe and fan unit: http://www.deepcool.com/product/cpuc...12/7_471.shtml
  • One Copper Cold Finger fabricated to fit a Canon 450D (straight through mode).
  • One Canon 450D Mono Sensor, with Argon chamber behind the cover glass.
Together these can be used to build a cold finger cooled mono Canon 450D, or a modify any existing 450D colour model for cold finger cooling.

I would like to sell these parts in one line (together to one buyer) but if no interest I am prepared to sell the items separately. Photos below.

In the interest of full disclosure, the mono sensor has a some minor pixel flaws (as a result of the debayering process) but these can be calibrated out of images captured by the used of dithering and cosmetic cleanup in stacking apps like DSS. You can see an example of an image produced with this sensor here:

So to price, I am asking $140 for the total package plus $15 shipping to any address in Australia, which I believe represents excellent value for anyone seeking to build a cooled camera, and is far below the cost of acquiring the individual items. In the case of the mono sensor, you can't buy them at all.

If your interested in this kit just PM me here on IIS. Thanks for looking.
