Hi does anyone know the wattage of the  peltier  cooler suitable for a 285 ccd . I found two which are correct size 25mm x 15mm . One is 10 watt the other is 18 watt will these cool the ccd enough thanks karl

I think they would.  Even the 10W one might be enough at a guess.  Make sure you have good cooling of the hot side.

Thankyou the TEC sits directly on metal body . Also could you recommend a thermal paste so much variation of price .

Thanks again .
