I have a (big) heatsink that is 11 inchs long, 4 inchs wide and roughly 1 1/2 inchs tall (the fan length). If anyone is thinking about buying it i will give more accurate measurements and photos. I'm going for whatever a buyer will offer.

    Hate to tell you this Logan but heat sinks are quite common making them of little value if you try and sell them. Instead of selling it, why don't you just use it for your self? A heat sink of that size sounds great for use with a peltier.

    Just because it has a large transformer doesn't mean it can make a jacob's ladder, all that does is allow it to source more amperage. I have a transformer probably similar to the one you are talking about that came out of a UPS. Currently, it's on my robot giving me 450 watts AC power out of 12v. Pretty good use for 50 cents I like to think.
