I notice the conversation gets ugly, sorry to see. G.O.G. you'd prob be better off with propane injection. it is generally used to create more power on diesels, but more power can be better economy as well, depending on what you use your truck for. There also exist water injection, not a shsitery scam. I think its more about cooling to make for more oxygen for a better burn or to keep the exhaust gas temperature(EGTs) down if using a turbo. There are smog legal "chips" that many use in economy mode. Prob the best way to increase MPG is choice of tires and correct tire pressure, and how you choose to drive. Then there is always nitrous injection. Hey if you had the right solar setup, the energy converter via electrolysis so well described and documented above might "be the …

Nice! Just add good gauge wire and claps and you have a jumper pack. I'm inspired to make similar with a deep cycle batt and may seek a more square bucket. good square buckets are hard to come by but pack better. shoot you can have a 12v evaporative cooler run of your solar bucket bank make a stool out of your setup and chill out on it.

Without having profound electrical knowledge. a motorcycle battery and a 10 to 20 watt solar panel should do the trick. there is a nice price point on 50 watt solar panels and they are a convenient size. so why not.You can get the numbers you need off your two "appliances" your fan and your pump and match that too your panel/ batts. I'll post my numbers. Please correct me if I'm wrong with your best nice folks, but you can not really oversize your battery, you just need enough electricity from your panel to charge what your swampy and??? are drawing factoring in for losses. I have a feeling there is a balance here to be achieved: too much water pumping over the wick: not enough evaporation. too many cfms of air could be too much evaporation of just defuse the nominal cooling????…
see more »Not sure that is the case, and I sure want to know. if the h20 is cooler but not ice will that mean more evaporation perhaps even cooler evaporation by the warm dry air flow through and over the wicks, I believe so. of course a chunk of block ice wouldn't wick.Warmer water well the closer the water is to the ambient temperature less cooling.....correct?The drier the air the better, this I know.Some expert schooled in the sciences better that I please give us the science (outside of the relative humidity. will ice water work better at cooling in an evaporative cooler that water x degrees below ambient temperature or is there some ideal gap for the evaporation point of water......I'll try both ways on my swampy for a proof is in the pudding response.

I attend more n likely the same hot dry dusty gathering. Many years we have lucked out and had some 110 to run AC's or wall plug swamp coolers. Not so this year at Chilleville. Your unit is mondo and your awesome flip pac camper with the requisite silver bubble insulation probably has similar cooling needs to my Alaskan pop up camper. How many Gallons of agua are you going through on a typical blistering playa day nap? Or lets just keep it per 24 hours average. I was thinking a 5 gallon bucket or ice chest style within my camper might do the trick. I wonder if there is a cooling advantage or disadvantage to having your evap cooler inside rather than outside. Better brush up on thermodynamics. I guess at some point the humidity inside a structure would make it so the cooling effect of evap…

I was going to ask, Why not red light for nighttime sports.....this article on lighting and backpacking explained to me well the pros and cons of red versus grey (blue green) and full spectrum lights and optimizing ones own night vision.https://backpackinglight.com/00202-2/And this is even better, argues dim white light is often better for seeing at night that red or cyan/bluegreen http://stlplaces.com/night_vision_red_myth/

(check out the seca 2200, and if you needed to do a 24 hour race you'd need additional battery packs) I believe the bulk of light and Motion Lights are built in Monterey. Not sure if anyone uses HID anymore. I imagine it has its place.
