Try without the cooler to start with. Remember longer the exposure, better the S/N. You could also take 10-15 Bias frames to remove any shot noise.
Id be very interested to see the cooler results though. Especially during these 20-28degree nights. Hate humidity !
I think if you set the 350D to Parameter 2, this will apply ICNR. doesnt actually say ICNR, but Parameter 2 will turn this feature on. I might try this tonight also. Drawback is a twice as long exposure, but it would be just the same I gather with taking darks anyway; only spending more time on a target then taking your darks afterwards.
