I know of several labs where batteries of wine coolers are used, we as a
small lab have one. Works fine.

Of course also our rockimager works with peltier-based temp control, its
effective, and vibration free.

Anyone using wine coolers with peltier thermoelectric controllers
(without auto defrost) for macromolecular crystallization in their
home labs? I remember a tiny box using similar technology that once
was sold by Hampton Research, but I can no longer find it. Is there
any good reason not to use peltier-based cooling? The expense is
very small compared to the incubators I've bought. An array of
vibration-free wine coolers would offer multiple temperatures.
Advertised are temperature swings under +/-0.5°C within useable ranges.
