Anyone ever used one of these?
I've been looking for a good, inexpensive way to cool my bus (both
when I'm driving and camping). Besides costing a bundle, those tube-shaped, window-hung swamp coolers never really appealed to me. Seemed like they would be a lot of hassle and don't look too good. I came across this site: http://www.kooleraire.com/. The concept looks like a good one for several reasons: 1. It's cheap. {) 2. It recirculates the cooler cabin air instead of dragging in hot air from outside. 3. You can put your food in the cooler and use the A/C at the same time. 4. If you used sealed ice (e.g. frozen milk jug, pop bottle, etc.), I think it would actually reduce humidity via condensation instead of increasing it the way swamp coolers do. This is great news for humid climates (or humid days in dry climates like NM). If my mind is working right, I think it wold fit nicely between the front seats. -- Christian '71 Bus -- Turtle Save Darfur -- http://www.savedarfur.org/ World Vision (Darfur) -- http://donate.wvus.org/OA_HTML/xxwvi...item=107218 2 ICC (Sudan) -- http://www.persecution.org/Countries/sudan.html |
