wah............. unbelievable...........it seems the T*l*b*n have fine another good b*mb on hand................

lucky the pipe was quite thin, didnt manage to make a super deep cut.........

i think next time manufacturer put a big warning sign on the heat pipe, do not cook it on the stove.........btw just wandering if manufacturer tested it the same way ?

inside heatpipe contain nitroglycerin dissolved in nitrocellulose and a little ketone to in the mixing process. Its formula is, thus, similar to cordite lol

For industrial heatpipes may be. For PC usage heatpipes r actually very basic. Most if not all of them contain just plain water in a wicked pipe, that's all. There's no exotic liquids in PC heatpipes.

Water??? hmm.gif
Tats bad if it's only water. Means having the heatpipe only serves for cosmetic purposes rather than actually increasing performance?

you might want to go revisit the "thermodynamics attributes" of water to understand why water is such an interesting stubborn element when it comes to heat energy. that's what make them a good coolant.

oh btw, on an interesting note.. "didi" can also be considered a heatpipe rite? biggrin.gif
