From what I've read/seen of TECs, they are OK if efficiency is not a concern and in certain applications. However, in R/C, efficiency means a lot. We want max cooling AND max efficiency AND durability and and and and. We don't ask for a lot.

I still think a slightly larger heatsink that is properly placed to take advantage of the natural airflow inherent in a moving vehicle will work wonders without exotic cooling methods. Seems like any other solution has major disavantages that keep them from being a practical cooling solution.
