Thermal Test Wrap Materials and Resulting Junction Temperature

Disclaimer: These test were performed for my personal knowledge and use. They resulted in the forming of my personal opinions (listed later in this posting)…there is enough information contained in the resulting data for you to form your own opinion…and you should. I have been working on enhancing the thermal efficiency of a P60 drop in for some time and the one thing I found is ‘no matter what modifications are made to the drop in, the heat transfer ultimately depends on the efficiency of the …
