Re: Keeping things cool




I have my AV gear confined in a small cabinet with lots of other AV
stuff including my Tivo.

Tivo reports on its status screen that its board temperature is 32C
and that it is happy with that.

I guess in your situation the temperature inside your cabinet would
be slightly lower than the board temperature.
