WTB: Heatsinks

[pseudonomen137]

I'm looking to find some cheapo PASSIVE heatsinks for my TECs. The TECs won't be run at full power, but its still gunna need to be a half-decent heatsink to work passively. The Al heatsinks used as low end CPU heatsinks (without a fan on them) would be ideal, but I'm looking for CHEAP (hoping for <$5 apiece on quantities of 10 or less), so I'm thinking I may have to sacrifice to get something smaller. Any ideas? Thanks.

What dimensions are you looking for?

That would depend on price mostly, but ideally I'd be interested in something like this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835166051
except without the fan, and preferably $1-3 in 10 unit quantities. Dunno if I'm asking too much there :-/. Perhaps I'll have to opt for something smaller to meet my price bracket.

Hey Carter,

I just took a little deeper look around NewEgg's heatsink offerings, and I quickly found a heatsink that costs $2.69 each, but the shipping is $2.09 each. That's kind of aggravating.

From the looks of it, your best bet would be to find a heatsink with an easily removable fan, and then sell the lot of fans on eBay. :-/

Sorry I can't be of more help.

Oh, BTW, can you link to the spec sheet of the TECs you have? I bought a few from you a few months ago off of eBay and I didn't bookmark the spec sheet.

Thanks!

Thanks Greenie, I should have included an item number. I haven't gotten 20 posts yet, so I can't post links.
