Claim 0:
1. A temperature regulation unit comprising:
a housing having an upper end and a lower end, the housing defining an internal cavity;
an electrical connector extending from the upper end of the housing;
a bracket positioned within the internal cavity of the housing, the bracket including:
a first flange having a first side and an opposing second side, the first flange defining an aperture; and
a second flange extending perpendicularly from the first flange and longitudinally along a sidewall of the conduit;
a conduit positioned within the internal cavity of the housing and defining a passage, the conduit having a first end and an opposing second end, the conduit extending through the aperture of the first flange such that the first end of the conduit is positioned above the first side of the first flange and the opposing second end is positioned below the opposing second side of the first flange, wherein the second flange extends longitudinally along the conduit from the first flange toward the opposing second end of the conduit;
processing electronics positioned within the internal cavity and disposed on the second flange such that the processing electronics are positioned along the sidewall of the conduit;
a fan positioned within the internal cavity of the housing and external to the passage of the conduit, the fan secured to the first side of the first flange and positioned proximate the first end of the conduit, the fan configured to provide an airflow to the passage of the conduit; and
a thermal element positioned within the passage of the conduit, the thermal element configured to thermally regulate a temperature of the airflow flowing through the conduit and out of the opposing second end of the conduit, the thermal element including at least one of a heater or a thermoelectric cooler.
