Does it regulate the TEC current or is it a on/off thermostat with a H bridge? For the price I suspect the last but even still.. the price is very low. I really doubt you can build it yourself cheaper.

"its called character briggs..."
Currently it’s programmed as a simple thermostat with hysteresis, a keg cooler doesn’t need more than that. But I’m sure a PID loop shouldn’t be a problem either. I’m not at home right now so I don’t have access to the code and documentation at the moment. I haven’t checked yet how much more code can be implemented.
Hmm I want some just to try it out. If Codevison means CodeVisonAVR then I got all the tools needed. I guess its build around an ATiny so the code space may be limited.
For crude temperature control this controller should be enough. But forget about cooling/heating your DPSS
Current code only turns the TEC on/off at specific points and takes 548 bytes from the 1024 bytes of flash. Also.. it seems you can only use it to heat or cool.
But €4,5 for a pre-build pcb you can’t complain
Yeah, I have taken a look at the code, it is very rudimentary but has potential for much more fine grained regulation.
This space for rent.
