It's more than just the labor, it's having the right tools (and replacing them when needed), the time involved in the communication, packaging... there's PayPal fees, organization and shipping...

And of course, it better be fit correctly and have the set screw in the right spot.

Anyway, feel free to offer some heatsinks for cheaper. After you make a few hundred of them, see if you still think it is worth your time.

P.S. I just dropped the price some... :)

I have an idea on how to improve the thermal efficiency of the heatsink. I am taking this from the principles used in CPU heatsinks on computers.

If you look at the 'sink in the picture there is a lot of solid space. What if you drilled many small holes parallel to the main chamber where the module rests? This would increase the surface area exposed to the are allowing the heatsink to cool faster and thus cool the module faster as well. Not sure how well this will work without a fan but hey always need to try something new right?

For sure...

Just not sure the extra work is really needed, but more than that, not sure people would want to pay for the extra work! :thinking:
