    Peltier Electronic Project Help

    I've sorted out the Peltier heat issues, what I am wondering now is if I can run the Peltier 12V 5a, the two fans 12V 0.19a, an arduino uno which is powering a relay board, and a set of LED striplights 12V 2a, all off the 12V 8a Powersupply. Excluding the Arduino this adds up to 7.38a required...

    Peltier Electronic Project Help

    I bought another peltier module 12V 5a, I hooked it up to the power supply and placed it with the right end in the heat sync and fan cooling. With the new peltier there was now jumping or stop and starting with the power supply and everything worked smoothly. However, I believe I have broke this...

    The fan works perfectly by itself running off the power supply, is that not evidence enough that it is the peltier causing the problems?

    Peltier Electronic Project Help

    Do you think it would be easier to just order a new peltier module, say a 12v 5a one off ebay? As the one I have has been taken out of a fairly old mini fridge so may not be reliable or as you say may not be suitable.

    Okay, I have bought and had delivered a 12v 8A power supply, however when I connect my peltier to the supply with a fan also, the fan stop and starts consistently every second as does the LED indicator on the power supply. This is not the case when I connect the fan by itself. Any help?

    In regards to the extra wires I will add to the veroboard/stripboard, do the wires need to be a certain thickness or can I use any type of wire?

    Is this an appropriate prototyping board provided I reinforce the tracks? http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B009XPBHEQ?cache=0bb45e9b4bd17fe6db8b5785251b88a1&pi=SY200_QL40&qid=1410536403&sr=8-3# Bit of a silly question, but is 12v 8amps enough to give a significant electric shock?

    Thank you very much guy you have been very helpful. So each component will draw what ever amperage they need from the power supply? So you recommend 12V 8A. Will this voltage and amperage be safe to breadboard? Thanks Ben

    Peltier Electronic Project Help

    Hi there, I am a complete beginner to electronics and my overall knowledge is very limited so bear with me. I wish to power a peltier module and two fans using one power supply and have the circuit activated using a relay controlled by an Arduino Uno. The peltier I have taken out of an old mini...
