[ausev] Scott's EV

Thanks Chris,

Yeah, I think that will work.  I didn't notice that potential upper
mounting surface the last time you sent this info to me...

I just ordered it and a 12v 60 cfm muffin fan to go on top of it.

What about the lube?

Thank you,

That's a pretty enormous heatsink. What are you using it for?  Something
in addition to your Curtis controller? The Curtis controller measures
about 12" x 7". If you're trying to cool multiple components, you'd have
much better luck finding heatsinks for each of them.

A few days ago I posted:

Since then, I've found some independent confirmation of the
applicability of this particular heatsink for Curtis Controllers. For
$50, I don't think you're going to find a much better deal for this much
surface area.  What were you quoted for the Curtis heatsink?
