    What do you mean DIY reactor? Do you mean heat exchanger?

    Kinda like a kalk, carbon or phosphate reactor, only instead of media it would just house and move water from the DT. I wonder if a BRS dual carbon and phosphate reactor would fit in a mini fridge and if the fridge could cool it and the tank water passing through it enough to keep tank temps lower and have the added benefits of carbon + phosphate reactors.

    back in the day, I to some peltiers and epoxy sandwiched them between a copper plate and copper heatsinks with fans. then artic silvered the contraption to a celeron 300a. I over clocked that thing to 550mhz.. It made ice when exposed to normal air. it was pretty bad to the bone. If you could do something like this on a large scale, I think it would work well.

    Good invention and way to use what you have at the house to make it work. Keep us informed on how it well it really works.

    That is good enough for some Karma.
