Does anyone have any experience using one of these 12V portable AC
units on a boat. They look like a good option, but I was curious
if
anyone had any feedback on how they cool and how much ice they use.
The website says 20lbs an hour which is a lot, wondering if anyone
has
used this before. http://www.swampy.net/ac12.html
I'm wondering why the ice chest? Just to pump hot air in and suck
cold
out, might as well use a cardboard box.
You're not really that dumb, are you?
What difference would it make? The function of an ice chest is to
insulate. If you are pumping hot air into it, why would you need to
insulate it?
This unit works by pumping cold *water* through a heat exchanger, not air
across ice.
If you think different, show me the science.
The science is basic- heat always moves to cold.
The cooler is insulating the ice from absorbing heat from whatever it is
resting on, thus saving the ice for where it can be used more
efficiently-
in the heat exchanger.
Horse****!!! The science is cold is simply lack of heat. You are
blowing the same exact air across the ice that the ice would be exposed
to. If you are pumping 90 degree air into that cooler, what difference
would it make whether or not the container was insulated??? Try it.
Take a given amount of ice and put in a ice chest. Place another in a
cardboard box. Blow the same exact amount of air into each, with the
same exact equipment, and the same exact exhaust. Measure the
temperature of the exhaust. Guess what? They'll be the same.
You really are that dumb.
\Well, damn! Tell me HOW in the hell insulation would help if you are
pumping the exact same are that you are trying to insulate FROM right
into the cooler!!??? Again, see my last two sentences above. Try it.
Everything exactly the same except for the container. And again, if you
are pumping the same exact air into the chest that you are trying to
insulate from, just what IS the insulation doing? Take this for
instance. Take a piece of isopolycyanurate insulation outdoors. Take
the temperature on one side of the piece. Take the temperature on the
other side of the piece. Huh? They are the same? Imagine THAT! That is
exactly the scenario you'll see with the ice chest. You are pumping air
into it that is exactly the same temperature as that that you are
trying to insulate against. Dumb indeed!
"isopolycyanurate"? Let me help you with that big word...
Polyisocyanurate. It's sold at your local Home Depot under a variety of
brand names. IIRC, the R-value is 7.2 per inch - one of the best for
home sheathing.

Uh, it's not a word, it's a combination of abbreviations, thus doesn't
make a hoot which order.
Keep telling yourself that.
I've seen many, many documents with the
abbreviations in both orders.
They were wrong, too.
But, hey, you've followed me to another thread!!!!
Infatuation.......
Infatuation......
It's driving Dan crazy....
It's making Dan CRAAAZZZYYY....
I follow you to EVERY thread, remember? Got to keep your stories
straight, boy.
--
"It is common for persons with an infatuation disorder to suddenly, and
without provocation, act as though they dislike the very person they
are stalking."
Infatuation......
Infatuation.....
It's driving Dan crazy....
It's making Dan CRAAAZZZYYY......
How much time did you spend on that?
About 10 seconds. Why? I know you are infatuated to the point of
stalking, but do you need to know every little detail of my life?
Sounds like a sickness.
--
Yes, you DO have a "sickness" and there are professional people that
will help you with your infatuation complex.
10 seconds? You felt compelled to Google some quote and you did it in
10 seconds? Amazing. Good job, boy, now go clean your room.
Every single thread, there you are stalking. Tell me, is your
infatuation due to the fact that you look up to me like a little boy
does his dad, or is it because your gay?
Infatuation......

It's making Dan CRAAAZZZYYY......
I'd say a 'school girl crush'!
