tumbleweed Posted April 24, 2009 Posted April 24, 2009 TurboKool Swamp Cooler is a 12volt lo amperage draw 20-30 degree cooler. Their new and revised website is turbocool and for low humidity hi temp boondocking areas this might be the answer . The company was formerly known as Recair and I had one on a VW custom camper (many, many years ago! ) and it worked well and that was on 1 12v battery with a backup. As we are considering a 22 footer; deleting the sat dish 'adding this plus 2 solar panels and 4 6v batteries could give us a great boondocking Oliver. Now if the refrigerator could raised up to the cabinet level .......... Chuck
Moderators mountainborn Posted April 24, 2009 Moderators Posted April 24, 2009 Hey, Chuck, any chance that this swamp cooler could be quieter than the standard roof air conditioner we are all familiar with ? That could be a large plus for some of us. I would rather wake up in the middle of nowhere than in any city on earth 08' Oliver Legacy Elite HULL NUMBER 0003(sold)
tumbleweed Posted April 24, 2009 Author Posted April 24, 2009 As I remember, it was pretty quiet, espescially at the lowest level. It was in a VW fiberglass hitop camper, about an 1981, as I recollect. Chuck
