    Default hmm

    I always drain mine after use. No fear of a freeze? Or other unknown with keeping water in it?

    I got a chiller off Craigslist site unseen, works great BUT who the F wants a water cooled chiller! Wish I would have known that part! By the time I cooled the chiller I could have just cooled the laser direct. Ooops

    Cool

    Well, with a water-cooled chiller, if you loose water flow for a short period of time the show can still continue. If you have the water going straight to the laser, any interruption at all will trip the water interlock and shut down the laser. So someone flushes a toilet and the show cuts off.

    They do have a purpose, though I admit it's more cumbersome.

    hope it all goes well

    all the best .. Karl
