Well done trevor. It's good to see more people having a go at this sort of ATM gear.

Closing off the tube is good for a couple of reasons - it stops (or slows) air movement through the tube which gives steadier images, and also lest the cooling do its thing more efficiently.

Peltiers are especially nice, as they follow a constant delta from the ambient temperature - ie if the air drops a few degrees suddenly then the cold side will follow.

cheers, Bird
