Uh? I said "Its a Copper/Ali radiator, that's what it does as a heatsink".
"Nah, Contaminated Ali" they said again....

I do need to get this sorted out there, as I have some Ali/Copper radiators from a heatpump and some Ali/Copper heatsinks to sell WITH them.....as one sale, one grade, one price, one good price.

Imagine downgrading Aluminium because its got Copper with it....

i have had brass downgraded because of too much copper attached.
