Hi everyone..
I'm looking to put together a small personal project and need help with the components.
Ideally, I'd need all the components to fit inside this box.
In an approximate 5" x 6" x 3" plastic box (2-3mm thick with no other insulation at this point) where the volume will be ~50%...
I am looking to hide a heating device inside of a hat pin.
I’d like the tip of the hat pin to be able to ignite flash paper, which I believe lights at 150 F.
The battery and switch need to be small enough to be disguised by the design of the hat pin. Heres a picture for an approximate size...

Hello everyone!
I'm currently an intern at the Vilnius University Laser Research Center and I must develop a small dimension (aprox~40mmx60mmx5mm) sample heating/cooling system with a temperature range of -2ºC up to 150ºC for my setup. I was thinking of a single peltier element to achieve this...
I have a TEC1 - 12706. Specifications detail Imax at 6 amps. I would like to run five of these elements in parallel but my bench top supply can't supply the current needed ( I'd like about 5 amps each). I do however have a 600W power supply unit designed for PCs. The PSU has a single 12V rail...
I would like to know how can I stick 2 pieces of plastic using some kind of hardware that produces heat.
I have 3 components: 1 flat copper coil and 2 flat pieces of plastic (I have to decide the material). The question is how is it possible to join the 2 plastics using heat. I know there are...
Hello everyone!
The title pretty much says it.
I'm using two heating elements to heat up a vessel of about 4 in^3 and this is the way I'm thinking about doing it. (senior ME student here so please easy with the jargon)
So here is the way I'm wiring the thingy:
The problem with this setup...
Hello,
I have seen a couple projects on this website posted by folks trying to use carbon fiber fabric as an heating element, hopefully one more won't be too much of a bother...
My project would consist of using carbon fiber tape 1m (l) x 51mm (w). One provider of a similar tape has posted that...
Hi everyone,
I'm trying to make a Nichrome wire to glow. I took apart a electric lighter (first 2 pics) to see how it works and it seems like the battery is connected directly to the Nichrome wire. But when I try to connect a Nichrome wire twice as long but the same gauge as the one in the...
Hello

Another thing I...
Hi all,
I put together a few basic circuits back in college, but don't really remember much. I'm trying to figure out how to make a heating element that can be powered by a battery and used to wrap around a container and keep it just a few degrees above freezing. I'll probably add in...
