## Overview

The GeeBat TEC1-12706 is a high-performance thermoelectric cooler module operating at 12V and 5.8A, capable of delivering 58-65W of cooling power. Measuring a compact 40x40x3.8mm, it offers rapid temperature control from -30°C to 83°C with reversible polarity for heating or cooling. Designed with durable ceramic plates and no moving parts, it ensures silent, reliable operation for diverse applications from CPU cooling to custom beverage chillers. Each unit is rigorously tested and includes insulated leads for easy installation.

## Description

Feature: 100% Brand new and high quality. Get ice cold in minutes or heat to boiling by simply reversing the polarity, used for numerous applications from CPU coolers to alternate power sources, or even for your own custom car drink warmer/cooler. Since they consist primarily of semiconductor material sandwiched between ceramic plates and have no moving parts. These devices must be used in conjunction with a heat sink to avoid burned. Each device is full inspected and tested. Fitted with 6-inch insulated leads. Specifications: Model: TEC1-12706 Size: Approx. 40mm x 40mm x 3.8mm Voltage: 12V Umax (V): 15V Cooling power: Qcmax 58-65W Imax (A): 5.8A △Tmax(Qc=0): up to 65°C Operates Temperature: -30°C to 83°C Power Cord: 25-30cm Package Included: 10* TEC1-12706 Thermoelectric Cooler

Review: Pleased and Surprised - 1. I received the chips a couple of days late. 2. Tested all of the chips and they all function perfectly. 3. There is no cycling on/off they say functioning as long as power is applied. (I have bought Peltier Chips that would cycle on and off every few seconds.) 4. I have not put them through all of their paces yet, but, temperature differential seems to be around 80 to 100 degrees F, cool/hot. (I will post additional test results later, such as: -Temperature reading over time, cool and hot. -Current draw 5. All of the chips were 1.5" square. 6. All of the chips arrived in good condition, no chips, cracks, or missing leads. 7. The packaging they arrived in was adequate. (Bubble pack, groups of 5 secured together, double bagged, each piece properly identified.) Overall I am pleased with the quality of these chips. I've ordered many things made in China that exhibited 3 or more defects out of 10 pieces so you can say that I am surprised as well. I would recommend these to a purchaser based on this sample. As always, Buyer Beware!
Review: Arrived in good order and working... - These just arrived. They were all loosely packaged in a small box. None were broken but they probably could have been packed a bit better with a small piece of bubble wrap or foam just to ensure the Peltier devices didn't move around so much and to ensure they arrive unbroken. Like I said, mine were all in good shape. Just randomly tested 3 of them and they seem to work just fine. Great price for these. I'm excited for my project I have planned these!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Do these generate energy only when the hot side is heated/cold is cooled or both?**
A: Theoretically, creating the temp differential, however you do it, should generate. Expect to need a 30° side to side difference before you usefully generate.

**Q: do these require a cooling fan? will they withstand 2,000 degrees farenheight?**
A: They do require a cooling fan. However these are not capable of what they are specked to run. These were shorting out at 3v 1.5 amps and that was with a heat sink and fan attached. They work great for about 5-10 mins and then pop and both sides get instantly hot. I would look for another source from a more reliable source. I ordered some from TEtec and they have been working amazingly!

**Q: What size heatsink do you need to use for the 12706 module?**
A: Heatsink requirements are somewhat dependent upon application and current value and duration of applied current. To demonstrate the action of this device I have a heatsink salvaged from a computer's microcontroller. Its dimensions are 3 1/4" x 3 1/4" x 1 1/2". I used a thermal conductive adhesive to adhere the Peltier device to the heatsink. The cooling side of the device is exposed in order that it can be touched to demonstrate its cooling ability. Dissipating heat away from the hot side of this device is paramount to is cooling performance. In my application of this component I am incorporating circulating water to enhance heatsinking performance.

**Q: I am planning to use about 6 of these for a project. I wonder how we can verify quickly if each of the chip is performing based on specifications?**
A: Thermopeilters are much more efficient at lower power. They are optimal around 9-10 volts and will produce the most thermal energy transfer units per watt. Any higher than that and we encounter a decrease in thermal energy per watt as the modules must counteract the thermal gradient. Our thermal solutions can be likewise reduced in capacity, complexity, and cost as the thermal gradients are more diffused and easier to manage.

    You could easily make a refrigeration unit, using 18v nominal solar panels, and by having parallel sets (2x modules in series) and they will balance and spread the load between them. You can get more performance per module running at higher voltages, but 9-10 volts will be the most effective use of our power. = )

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ If looking for a cooling element that you just plug in and it gets cold, This doesnt work that way.
*by B***N on February 19, 2021*

one side gets cold relative to the temperature on the hot side. So if you just plug this in alone, you will feel the cold side get cold after a couple seconds and the hot side gets hot. after a few seconds the hot side will get so hot that the entire Peltier turns hot and acts like a heating element. Like I said it will be relatively cooler than the hot side. So if you don't keep the hot side cool, than the cold side wont be cold. If the hot side is hot, the cold side will be cooler than the hot side, but not enough to cool something. You will need a massive heatsink and fan compared to the size of the Peltier plate itself. In my application, 1 of these takes about 10x the amount of heatsink to keep it cool enough for the cold side to be cold enough for my application. Although if you are using this as a heating element it works just plugging it in. if you are trying to use this to turn heat or cold into electricity, that also will work without modification. hope that helps.
