    Not sure what to expect with the STXL6303. With my old ST8XME I was able to cool the camera down to about 35-38 below ambient with the fan and this was 85-90% power. Now it looks like I should be able to go to 60 below according to the documentation? However when I get to about 50-52% power it doesn't seem to want to go lower. This is just under 50 below ambient.
    Thanks

    Dave,
    driver will not allow the TE cooler to go below 50 degrees of ambient temperature.
    This is because the cooler doesn't work so precisely below fifty degrees.

    Ok thanks! Just wanted to make sure there was not a mechanical or other problem.
