Peltier Thermo-Electric Cooler Module - 12V 5A

Keep it cool with a Peltier module. These unique electronic components can generate a temperature differential when powered. That is to say, apply 12V to the red (positive) and black (negative) wires and one side will get cold while the other side gets hot.

Red lead (+)
Positive DC power lead. Adafruit states to apply 12V to the red (positive) wire; one side gets cold while the other gets hot.
Type · powerVoltage · 12V nominal; Adafruit lists suggested voltage range 12V to 15.5V and max current about 6A at 12V.
Black lead (-)
Negative DC power lead. Adafruit states to apply 12V to the red (positive) and black (negative) wires.
Type · groundVoltage · Return for 12V nominal DC input.
