Well just to ruffle the fur a bit more... the zeddy isn't entirely 'closed'... so sone heat does escape...
Just saying
and due to its black case, it is nearly a perfect black radiator, able to emit a lot of energy as thermal radiation
Maybe, but the thermal conductivity of the ABS plastic is not exactly great...
A warm Zeddy does work nicely as a hand warmer. Just need two in winter, one for each hand
Incidentally, if you have a fan in your machine and that results in a forced airflow over the ULA (and 7805 if you are still using a series voltage regulator), then the ULA does not need a heatsink...
Standby alert
There are four lights!
Step up to red alert. Sir, are you absolutely sure? It does mean changing the bulb
Looking forward to summer being good this year.
