Hi all,
I have a question about the heat transfer issue with P60 drop-ins (Normal pill & reflector, not Malkoff kinds)...
What I read most of the time is to use ALUMINIUM foil to wrap the reflector to make it thick enough to touch the body so that the heat can be transferred to the body.
From what I read, Copper heat up more than twice as fast as the Aluminium and, will cool down quicker at the same rate. But Aluminium has better heat transfer. (Correct me if I am wrong)
So, I happen to have copper & aluminum adhesive tapes, so I thought of trying the following:
Base layer of tape: Copper (To conduct the heat faster)
Last layer (touching body): Aluminium (To transfer heat to body faster)
What do you all think?
Or does anyone has a tried & tested way of improving the P60 drop-ins heat issues?
Thank you!
