Raleigh,
I am working on a project that subjects our device to outdoor elements. We
had to consider all weather elements and how to protect the system; our
solution was to install our device in a NMEA enclosure with a peltier
cooler. With the cooler, we can achieve a temperature delta of 40 degrees
to the ambient temperature. I am quiet positive that you could achieve a
greater value than 40 if you wished.

Regards,

Sean Gahan
