Woah, the last quote I got from them was less than half the price of a cab. I guess I'm cooling less equipment? What model are you looking at? On 6/17/2013 4:28 PM, Chuck Anderson wrote:
This is by far a "cheaper" option, but should work just fine. I'm about to do the same myself.
Grab a used cab here - http://www.usedtowers.com/CABINETS/CABINETS.htm
Some of those come with the factory huge AC systems built for thousands of watts of equipment inside, but if you're like me and will have 300-400 watts max, grab a non-cooled cabinet for cheap.
Then pick up one of these guys and slap it on, buy the capacity you need. You can get them with a heating option as well, they're thermoelectric and very affordable- http://www.eicsolutions.com/thermoelectric-air-conditioners.php "very affordable"? I looked at those and they cost more than twice

But I might end up going with them anyway, 1500 BTU would cover the 400 watts I generate inside the cabinet, but I'm more concerned about the outdoor environment/solar heating effects. How many BTU should I add to account for that?
