RV and an Air Cooler

RV and an Air Cooler turned out to be a good option while visiting friends and plugging in at their homes for a day or two.  We are always afraid to use the AC when plugged in to someones home on a 15 amp cord so we don't.  My Daughter gave me a six gallon Air Cooler for my birthday this year and it is great!  While not as good as running the AC it is a lot better then just running fans in a hot climate and it can run off my batteries.

I have ran it for six hours and it dropped the inside RV temp by over ten degrees.  The AC will knock the temp down by 20 plus degrees.  So it is not perfect but it beats just having fans blowing around hot air.  Also I could still run my CPAP all night on the batteries as well.  Please note I used a O2 tank not my concentrator on this test.   I will try all three (CPAP, Concentrator, Air Cooler) on batteries soon, if they all work through the night I will very happy.
