    Are you ready for Stargate Command?

    Thanks to you, I finally brought a camera. I have to wait until tomorrow for the mini-USB cable to arrive so that I can upload the pictures I've already started taking. You could of said this without having to post a picture. The fact is you intended to be insulting, just as have been here...

    Are you ready for Stargate Command?

    Maybe you should have had the decency not to post obnoxious comments in someone else's thread, to the turn around and complain about highjacking.

    Are you ready for Stargate Command?

    I just got my four compressors today. I'm really surprised by just how small they are. These things are really tiny. I've got all four of them sitting tightly grouped together inside of my Pelican 1780 Transport case. I haven't mounted them yet. I've only positioned them for the sake of...

    Are you ready for Stargate Command?

    I went looking (with Google) for information on my Rechi compressor, and wound up on the Spudfiles.com site. There's someone there with a great deal of knowledge about refrigeration. He gave this very detailed answer to one of my questions. Here's the link to his answer...

    Are you ready for Stargate Command?

    This is the information that I've found for these compressors. I've been searching all over the web for as much as I can find. Seems these compressors have turned up quite a bit of interest. I found one link to spudfiles.com where one guy is using it for a potato gun! The cooling capacity seems...

    Toyota Prius +2004 phase-change cooling system?

    And I'm certain there will be others as well. http://www.refrigeration-engineer.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1727 My primary concern is to get a refrigerant that is compatible with the oil in these compressors. My second concern is to get a refrigerant that will deliver much lower temperatures...

    Toyota Prius +2004 phase-change cooling system?

    It's too late now! I've already ordered them. I tried to get the Danfoss SC18CLX.2, but they were no longer available. In checking on these compressors, I read where someone was using propane and/or CO2 as the alternative refrigerant(s). I know that the compressor oil is the biggest problem...

    Are you ready for Stargate Command?

    The heaviest objects in my build will be the four compressors. And I just got the shipping weight for them, at 60LBS. So I'm guessing when the build is completed, it will be less than 150LBS. There really won't be anything else coming close to having the mass of the compressors. So two people...

    Are you ready for Stargate Command?

    I initially wanted to get the M60 plate brazed heat-exchanger. But because of them only being available in 3/4" NPT ports, I decided to get the M30, which I thought came in 1" NPT ports. As it turns out, the ports were in fact 1" weld sockets. Not good for me at all. So after consultation with...

    Are you ready for Stargate Command?

    So for an update. I've purchased four, yes count them, four compressors. They were $19.99 each on Ebay. I brought them from the same guy who was selling Danfoss SC18CLX.2 compressors for $49.99 each. But they were are sold out. So I was looking for something to replace them. I got them from...

    Are you ready for Stargate Command?

    It's now early Saturday morning. I've had some time to look over the case. As I stated in my previous comment, I have a lot of work ahead of me. I already realize that some ideas have to be changed to fit the actual dimensions of this case. But none of that is bad, since the only thing that...

    Are you ready for Stargate Command?

    So it finally arrived. It was probably the last delivery of the day. But I got it! I'm just taking the time now to assess what all I can do with it, and how and where I will place things inside of it. While being large, it's still is going to be a very tight squeeze to get everything inside...

    Are you ready for Stargate Command?

    Yeah right, like going back and reloading really helps! NOT!! Why is it that so often whenever I try to post, I get that message? Is there nothing that can be done about it. The method to get around it is cumbersome at best. And it happens much too regularly to be comfortable! Shingoshi After...
