Air flow stop? If no then you didn't freeze it, remember I got mine down to 20* and air was still flowing.

I have my line insulated as well. I'm gonna leave it at 346k for a little while and see how it works over the next week or so.

Changed the resistor to a 327k one. All I can say is wow! Gets a little too cold now! Going to have to pay attention to it freezing.
