FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Very little airflow is required to extract heat from the unit.
As long as the unit is placed somewhere that air can flow over the cooling fins, the product should function. It will protect itself in the case of insufficient cooling being available.
IP rating is IP67, so it can be submerged, but not in line with high-pressure jets of water.
The unit was designed for use in Formula E, but this is only an example of where it could be used.
Potential use cases are much wider
For prototypes with a road release status limited to trained drivers, yes.
