ULTIMATE Water Cooled Gaming Chair!!

[LordKitsune]

@ColinLTT @LinusTech I wonder if this would work better (not that it wasn't already doing well) with a rectangular tubing? It would allow for more surface area of the seat to transfer energy away from the body.

 

This would be an example, and the company in the link would be able to make custom sized tubing.

 

Just a thought, if y'all ever wanted to do another iteration of this chair!

But you have floatplane and bronze? 

 

BS detector: high.

Don't like Google detector: Also high.

Really? This is @Den-Fi we're talking about here and you're using "but you have floatplane and bronze" as evidence that he has money

I looked at his profile. How is he a "new user" ? like, its been 3 years since he joined. Ive been on for <1 year, and im a veteran

He just joined the forum, what are you talking about

What case/build(video) is that?

In regards to efficiency.
I would not be the slightest bit surprised if a regular AC has better overall efficiency for the typical room.
Since Peltier coolers have a laughably small coefficient of work. Yes, it does pump heat, but not a lot compared to how much power it needs for it.... (except for really small temperature deltas, then it can be rather decent.)

Though, Peltiers are wonderful for sub ambient cooling, and temperature regulation of "low powered" devices.
Typical examples would be to thermally regulate laser diodes, or to cool CCD sensors in various low light applications. Both rather niche things to say the least.

I can though see a valid use of a Pilteir for applications where a phase change cooler is simply too bulky, or noisy to be practical. Like on this chair, or a 12 volt mini fridge, or an aquarium cooler. All things that wouldn't need a ton of cooling to work decently.

Though, the main reason I myself wouldn't just rely on this over an AC, is that a warm room radiates more heat than a cold room. And this alone can make for a rather noticeable difference to perceived air temperature. _{(Though, to be fair, an AC isn't remotely the best way to make a room colder, better insulation and more mindful ventilation is usually more efficient, as well as "proper" building practices. Most houses aren't remotely efficient to be fair...)}

what's the case on the desk at 9:30?

[Cedric 97400]

Well, I was thinking, you watercoold the chair but could it be possible to include a computer inside the chair?

It might be an interesting solution for cable management. 

Don't you think?

I also am curious about the case that was on the desk :D

Found it. ShortCircuit showcase of a MainGear pc. It's a custom chassis.
