Does a peltier device have a lifespan similar to that of a diode (ie a long time if used within limits??) ...
Also can it be switched on and off (say 10 min intervals) ....Ive got a cheap disk smith peltier 6 pack cooler which i want to run 24/7 (only to keep fish food from going stale) but as its running from solar power i'd like to run it on/off 50% duty cycle.. would a 10min on 10 min off cycle harm it.. As it is at present its juts permanelty on!
