Hey everyone.
I want to spoil my Photon with some upgrades and I plan to start with the genius PTC Heater Unit by
Vinicius Silva
.
I have chased down the PTC Heater and the Thermostat on Amazon, but I'm not sure what sort of PSU to get.
I know that Silva and those who have built it recommend a 12V 10+A 120W unit, but here's my thinking.
These PTC heaters are meant to warm up cars in cold climates, right?
I have my printer indoors, so I just need to bump up the temperature a few degrees to a more ideal 24-30 °C.
Shouldn't I be able to reach the needed temperatures with a weaker power source?
The Youtube clip below mentions that it works just fine with a 12V 5A power supply as the 12V 100W PTC heater only needs to work at a 50W capacity to reach the desired temperature inside the printer.
What do you think?
If it's not obvious from my post, I'm asking as I'm quite clueless when it comes to electricity....
Big thanks to Mr. Silva for designing this thing and to the Making Cool Stuff Youtube channel for the informative video.
嘿, 大家好.
我想通過一些升級來破壞我的光子, 我計劃從天才ptc加熱器單元開始.
我追逐了亞馬遜上的ptc加熱器和自動調溫器, 但我不確定該得到哪種psu.
我知道silva和建造它的人推薦了一個12 v 10 +a 120 w, 但我的想法.
這些ptc加熱器是為了在寒冷的氣候中熱身汽車, 對嗎?
我有我的印表機在室內, 所以我只需要把溫度提高到更理想的24-30°c.
難道我不應該用較弱的電源達到所需要的溫度嗎?
下面的youtube片段提到, 12 v 5 a電源可以正常, 因為12 v 100 w ptc加熱器只需在50瓦的容量下工作才能達到理想的溫度 在印表機裡面.
你覺得呢?
如果我的帖子不明顯, 我在問, 因為在電力方面我很無知....
非常感謝silva先生設計這個東西, 並感謝youtube頻道提供資訊豐富的視訊.
