Would running it at 50% or x% duty cycle be effective enough? One minute on, one minute off. A simple circuit with a relay could do that, there are even some ready to go timer relays. Also you could hook up a thermostat with some hysteresis to have it turn off and cool when it hits a temperature set point. --=20 http://www.piclist.com/techref/piclist PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist .
