THX alot for the input guys!!!

I think im gonna go for the portable air conditioner.

I already have much air movement and fans, but my ambient room temp is over 85 so my passive air hood cooling can only bring temp down so much. I already have a squirlcage etc. and a cooling humidifyer, and another fan in the room. But still temps are tooo high. And its not even dead heat of summer.

Im Gonna get this puppy. If I painted it black, stuck a head ontop, Wouldnt it look like that star trek cripled guy who could only press two buttons.. one for yes one no. From OLD original star trek. :} LOL :}

Im not paying as much as listed so its not too bad. gonna get if for about $270. Im gonna go portable cause I rent and dont wanna really ask to install a large 10,000btu air conditoner. This portable has a Much smaller window exaust and i can vent to another room if i choose.

Plus I can wheel it right into the closet :} And for that price, its about same as a large window unit.
bob bobbinson Reviewed by bob bobbinson on . Swamp coolers/evaporative cooling VS. portable air conditioners Hey guys. Its getting hotter out now, and My temps are reaching near 90F :mad: I rent, so cant put big air conditioner in room. But I saw these $300 portable air conditioners. I know that would work wonders But price... Then I saw these Swamp coolers. They say they will cool a room down from 80F to 65F. But They push out 100 percent humidity unlike portable air conditioners. My question is, has anyone used a swamp cooler? And if so, will getting a Dehimidifyer solve the problem? Rating: 5
