yea where they really show their effectivness is your ability to bench on a moments notice ... great for a busy life style of the active bencher ....

Ahhh this is starting to sound like a commercial ............ LOL

Congrats bro in for the results

I'm going to try and max this cpu out on air while I wait to do a comparison. Maybe I'll do a review on it when it gets here? My problem here is the insane cost of ln2, and the available time to fill the dewar. I have to use it the day I fill it because of the bad vacuum. Most days I don't get home until 7pm or later. This will make life so much easier "at the flip of a switch".

I was really torn between a SS or hardware. I chose the SS because of the longevity that you get out of it. Hardware goes EOL as soon as you get it.

I had the UEI DT302 and was great. Only thing that annoyed me about it was the auto shut off on it. Kept having to turn it back on. Might have been a place to turn that setting off but never got around to looking.

Need to start saving for a ss or cascade myself after I finish building this computer I am working on now.

I grabbed a temp controller like the one Splig has... I wired it a/c power and plug it in to the wall.. no batteries, no auto shutoff. $40 on ebay. It is very consistent from my exp. with it.

probably shitty probes, but my ea10 doesnt go below -167 even if I submerge the probe in my pot.

Well, probes I can buy and try, but I'm not paying $269 for a Fluke 52 just to be more accurate at >-160c :laughing:
