Does anyone know if there's a means to log max and min temps for these
things? I was going to make a crude box for mine out of 2 inch cavity wall
insulation hard foam, with an air space between the box internal walls
and the TB, but like the other poster, I am unsure if it would cause too
high a temp without an additional fan and ventilation slots? Do most
users do what i do and leave them on 24 hours a day, seven days a
week?
