Camper Air Conditioner Ideas to save money while cooling you &
your family in your camper using a Portable Camper Air Conditioner
or the MightyKool MW1 Evaporative Cooler.
The
occupants of this Motorhome use a MightyKool MW1 to cool their
bedroom without running the Generator or Air Conditioner. The occupants of this Popup Camper keep cool with the
MW1 while sleeping using the Flex Hose Kit and in the galley with
energy from their "Power Station" Battery with the built
in charger . The
MW1 Left is most popular in the dry climates of the West and
the MK3 Top Right
& MAC Bottom
Left & M400 Bottom Right are the most
popular in the Eastern more humid States or even in the Western
States when Dual Cooling is desired. Not certain

"Dear Swampy, We just
wanted to drop you a line to tell you how well our Mightykool
(MW1) worked for us in our trailer on the Playa at Black Rock
City. We run off of solar so this was a great way to cool off
and be able to nap during the 90 degree days. Thanks," C.
and C. Jackson, WY
"I bought your MW1 MightyKool system on July 5. It has definitely
improved my camping experiences every weekend this summer."
R.O. Newington, CT.
"We used the MW1 in the motorhome this weekend, and found
you can set this thing up on the small dash, even though it looks
like it would fall off. I took a good stretch chord, hooked it
to the defroster vents, and it stayed there nice and tight. I
set the defroster to run on vented outside air with no heat, so
to get it into the Mightykool fan, and it did a pretty good job
of keeping us kool. When we camped at night with our electrical
hookup, we used a converter with the Mightykool , and stayed nice
and comfortable. Love my toys." C. P. Portland, OR
"You guys could have very well saved my life this summer.
the (IM30) ice myster did a great job on the forth and has really
let me keep my cool on a couple of other jobs. i'll really put
it to the test next week at a vietnam vet reunion where the temp.
is going to 100+. I use it with my battery pack and a space age
material colaspeable cooler. The little guy is quite an ice eater
but i'm working on making some large blocks of ice and am sure
that will help. thanks for all your help!!!!!" W. N. Attica,
KS.
"I have it (M400 MightyKool) jerry rigged right now to a
marine battery and jumper cables... and it works great... I'm
very happy with it. Great looking, working, and sounding product...
much better than the $200 sharper image toaster (cooling devise)
that sounded like a dying gerbil in a blender and put out as much
cold air as a cold soft drink. It (M300) really works, blue ice
works great. It's 110 outside in the shade and feels like 50-60
(wind chill factor added) - 18 inches from the vents - that's
better than my auto AC! I've been running it a few hours.... and
even the ice I've thrown in has melted.. the water is still about
60 degrees and the cold air is just great... It doesn't need to
be 30 degrees to be heaven!" G. V. Portola Valley, CA
"I just love this cooler (MW1), amazing how much it delivers.
Even when i posted it in the tiny trailers and teardrop forum
they told me to leave it home but I took it anyways to McGrath
State beach near Ventura, Ca. One night my wife turned on my small
fan and still felt warm so we plugged in the cooler and instant
cooling, couldn't have been a more perfect size for a teardrop
trailer." E. M. Phoenix, AZ.
Thanks for the prompt delivery of the MW1 MightyKool cooling system.
I was bit hesitant at first but after running it for the last
two weeks in 30 + C. degrees, have found it very good. I have
been filling the cooler with cold water from my fridge and found
sleeping quite comfortable. Compared to the cost of other evaporative
coolers these systems are way in front. thanks again, regards,

One of the differences between an Camper Air
Conditioner and an Evaporative Cooler are the methods used to
produce cool air. An Evaporative Cooler has cool air that feels
like an ocean breeze. A Camper Air Conditioner has dry cool air
like you feel in an aircraft cabin. People in dry climates generally
prefer the feel of an Evaporative Cooler and those in humid areas
generally choose a Camper Air Conditioner. A Portable Camper Air Conditioner or Evaporative Cooler are
preferred if installing an after market Camper Air Conditioner
is not economically feasible. Also if repairing a factory installed
Camper Air Conditioner is not possible, then consideration should
be made towards an Alternative. A Portable Cooler can be moved
from a boat to a vehicle and will provide relief while providing
less strain on the engine and, of course, money. Back to the top
1. How Large an Area will an Portable Device cool?
Seems like a logical question, however Portable Cooling
Systems are typically designed for Spot Cooling, not area cooling.
We do not know if the area to be cooled is well insulated or if
it is cool to begin with or if there is enough power and other
resources to maintain a full power-on situation. It does not matter
if you are using a Portable Cooling System in an auditorium or
a phone booth. Size does not make any difference because you will
place the Portable device where you need it! That is the advantage
of Portable Systems.
We always recommend you install properly sized
refrigerated central systems if you are not limited to either
energy or financial resources. However if you are limited to either
or both resources, then consider Portable Spot Cooling! These
systems work well unless you need to cool the pictures on the
walls or all the people in a vehicle; in which case you must install
a properly sized permanently mounted central system. The bottom line: If there is no limit on resources
install a properly sized built-in cooling device. If, on the other
hand, there are limited resources of energy and/or finances utilize
a Portable Cooling System to provide that needed relief from the
heat! Our Portable Coolers are strong enough to blow the papers
off your desk, yet much quieter than TV commercials! More

What are the Dimensions, Amperage Draw and Water Capacity?
One gallon (3.75 liters) of water will last around two to
three hours in the daytime and four to five hours during the night
when used for evaporative cooling in dry desert climates. The
"Ice Water" models are capable of using from 10 pounds
(4.5 kilograms) up to 20 pounds (9.0 kilograms) of ice per hour,
or more, depending on the ambient temperature and day or night
operation.
A 105 Deep Cycle battery, "not being charged", allow
the MW1, MW2 to operate for 50 to 80 hours and the "Ice Water"
models like the MK3, MK4, MAC & M400 will operate for 25 to
35 hours before the battery needs charging. The Swampy Models
will operate about 8 hours before the battery would need charging
as they draw more energy.
Evaporative
Cooler Models typically use Water only
& the Model AC 12 uses Ice only
The M200, M400, MK3, MK4,
MAC, MG3, & IM30 Provide; Dual Air Conditioning using Ice
or Water
All Dual Systems automatically
dispose of the excess condensation collected
