UDATE! After a long hot weekend camping the results were; 1. The unit worked well 2. Water consumption was about 20 gal for 4 days @ 102-105 degrees 3. Cooled to about 20 degrees below outside temps 4. Had to re-tape some joints once. 5. Ran with little effort on a 2000 watt portable generator 6. Used 2-3 tanks of fuel. 1/2 gal tank The set up was a quick way for me to cool the trailer and it worked fairly well. I am going to look for a used window swamp cooler this winter and fit it to the trailer with a 30-50 gal drum in the bed of the truck to feed it. I will do a new video of that when it's done. This set up used up too much space in the toy hauler and I think I could get a little better results from a window unit.
John, looks like you have visited Shingletown and "old Smiling Jack" gave you some pointers on duct working and the many uses of cardboard... It is about 88 degrees here in our area so that magnificent work of art would not be used much here. Why would you desert dwellers go out in a toy hauler on a 100 degree day? Get me some large cc 70s bike rebuilds to watch. My mind has been corrupt since the FrankenScooter build-out!!!
Hi Joe. As my deep state guy in Shingletown I need to feel like you are telling me the real situation there! I was told Shingletown was now ahead of Rio Linda as the dumbest town in the nation? You are brilliant and like a fish out of water there but that doesn't mean you can hold back new developments I need to be informed of. Will you please watch smiling Jack closely and if he steals my swamp cooler hack let me know?

But where's your water supply?
