Thanks!

I'm surprised they StarShoot advertised a thermocouple (a.k.a. peltier) device with no apparent heat sink/fan to blow off all the heat they generate. If you have what is in effect a heat pump, you really do want something effective to exhaust all the generated heat away effectively, else you'll have a 50 - 60 celcius part hanging off the back of your scope ready to burn you or melt wires.

Strange design.
