In summer my current SBIG gets down to -5 or zero at best. I'm looking to extend that.
Thanks,

If you need extra cooling, I was even considering running Peltier on Peltier. I was going to experiment on spacings and varying heat-sink methods including a simple 5mm aluminium plate separating the Peltier wafers.
But I had considered water cooling and if the Peltier to Peltier is not efficient enough then I would consider water cooling and subsequently would only go for a after-market system. CPU's run close to if not higher heat so it should work well. I would still be concern over extending cooling pipe to take in mount movement. An experience was a pond pump i set-up when I had a pond, I experienced some issues with pond pumps and flow. I am not fully experience with fluid dynamic calculations though so there may not be a major issue
