Jared,

If you go to the Turbo Kool website you will find a graph that shows OAT and inside air temp at various RH levels.

Before you buy one make sure you are happy with the cooling provided at the higher RH levels. As you can see the efficiency drops
off as the RH increases.

http://www.turbokool.com/cooler.html

Bottom line: if you want to use your GMC in the southeast part of the USA the Turbo Kool ain't for you.

I had an email "conversation" with the owner of the company and asked what the RH would be INSIDE the GMC with the Turbo Kool
operating. His response was something along the lines that there were too many variables to respond to that question and that he
recommended that a window be open when the Turbo Kool was operating. What that said to me was that the RH would be high inside.

Regards,
Rob M.

My bad. I too have lived out west and they really do work quite well out there. Out here, not so much. I just saw you were in
Alabama and thought you asking how they worked so you could set up something similar.
