I made a TEC project a while back and learned a lot of things in the process. I got a lot of help and advice from forum members. It is an interesting thread to read through. At the end, it really turned out nice! I used an open can diode for it. At one point, I turned it up to 395mW's! I have it running at 450mA's now....269mW's - Meredith acrylic. Check it out:

Yep...kinda. I referred you to the thread, because there is a lot of things to consider. Not just the peltier, but a finned heatsink, with a fan as well.
Anyway, sounds like a cool project! Looking forward to some pictures and details!

Yeah,the only problem with TEC modules is they draw a fair bit of current and produce quite a bit of heat themselves. Cooled a CPU using TEC a while back.
