I did calibrate it once, after I did that, the voltage readout was only slightly diff, and it was VERY fuzzy, or NOISY. I'll try it again tomorrow though.

Also, AAngel, teh Arctic Silver thermal adhesive is non-conductive, and SLIGHTLY capacitive. I will take care applying this though, I am going to apply a thin layer onto the heatspreader, and then apply it to the FET's. And then I will do this again to attach it to teh Quark case. Then I will use regular Arctic Silver thermal paste between the case and the big @$$ heatsink.

About the heatsink, it is designed for very low airflow rates, the stock fan that came with it was only 17cfm or something near that. The airflow that it will see in action on a truck will be far greater than this. Not that I would need airflow anyways, it would do a VERY good job without it even.
