Has anyone heard anything back from Michael (Mr. Radioactive) about his TurboKool? The reason I ask is because my Evap. cooler, on my garage, has been working so well for the past few months. I was just wondering if the TurboKool would work as well for a GMC.

It is, unfortunately, getting to the end of the effective season for swamp coolers in the Southwest. We had a taste of the "monsoon" last Saturday, and my garage cooler took the day off. This weekend has been an encore, with the humidity in the 20%+ range, and the garage is noticeably warmer and more muggy. Dissapointing, after being the coolest area in the house since I fired it up in mid April.

There is no question that evaporative cooling works well when the humidity is extremely low, what I am wondering about is whether or not there is enough airflow to cool the coach effectively. I would be interested in how this system is working out for Michael and the pros and cons of using it.
