Mine:

25litre of water 1 feet cube with integrated concealed reservoir for maximum cold transfer, and integrated filter compartments, possible to cool down to 19C with powerhead added, added another one for extra load testing. Condensation on glass tells it works.






Electricity consumption by peltiers just 60W to maintain 19C with room temperature at 27.5C, of course can add a themostat to set tempeture at 25C.

Certainly, resun CL85 is a good buy, with its price.

DIY of chiller is fun, but not for everyone.
