Do you need the exact make and model or will a general descrip do.
October 25th, 2008
never mind just sent more info than I though was needed

Hi Mkey Finn,
No, you don’t need to be very specific. A general description will do.

Finally another easy one. Got my entry in. Too bad the guess-it isn’t the prize. I could use one.

Found the original image (and subsequently the full name of the “thing”) quite easily but won’t be entering the compo, I’ve got no use for a cigarette-to-USB charger, it won’t work on my electric bike

Hey allan, you should have taken that “LR” logo off the pic, dead giveaway.
I know exactly what it is but ill leave it to someone else to win
October 30th, 2008
I thought I would leave it in since some of the past contests were very hard.
October 30th, 2008
The LR wasn’t a giveaway for me, rather I have been drooling over one of these for quite some time now…

More than just a water-cooled heatsink, this one has an active (peltier-based) chiller.
