A Battery Driven Portable System cannot be compared with an engine driven Automobile Air Conditioner. Therefore we always recommend you repair your existing A/C or install an engine driven after-market Automobile Air Conditioner.

If, however, these suggestions are not possible, then you may consider an Alternative Cooling System like an Auto Evaporative Cooler MW1 MightyKool Model (left) or Swampy T154 (right) might be your choice. Either of these models are popular for use in the dry climates of the World. If your area is typically Humid then an Ice Water Model Automobile Air Conditioner would be your choice.

Note: The MW1 produces about 5 degree cooler air than the T154 because of the unique Evaporative Cooling Systems incorporated in all MightyKool Models. Also the MW1 is more versatile for other uses, however is typically a bit more difficult to position in a vehicle. Most place the MW1 on the passenger seat or behind the front seats on some type of box blowing forward on the upper body where the heat is greatest.

One of the differences between an Automobile Air Conditioner and an Automobile Evaporative Cooler are the methods used to produce cool air. Auto Evaporative Cooling has cool air that feels like an Ocean Breeze & uses Water only. An Automobile Air Conditioner has dry cool air like you feel in Vehicle Air Conditioning & uses Ice along with Water. People in dry climates generally prefer the feel of Auto Evaporative Cooling and those in humid areas generally must choose an Automobile Air Conditioner.

A Portable Automobile Air Conditioner or Evaporative Cooler is preferred if installing an after market Auto Air Conditioner is not possible. Also if repairing an factory installed Auto Air Conditioner is not possible, then you may consider an Alternative. Portable Cooling Alternatives can be moved from vehicle to vehicle and will provide relief for one or two people while providing no strain on the engine and, of course, your money.

The following question was taken from our FAQ Section

1. How Large an Area will a Portable Device cool?

Seems like a logical question, however Portable Cooling Systems are typically designed for Spot Cooling, not area cooling. We do not know if the area to be cooled is well insulated or if it is cool to begin with or if there is enough power and other resources to maintain a full power-on situation. It does not matter if you are using a Portable Cooling System in an auditorium or a phone booth. Size does not make any difference because you will place the Portable device where you need it! That is the advantage of Portable Systems.

Now that I have used the unit for a few days I wanted to get back in touch with you. Yes, I am pleased with the MW1 MightyKool. It is not air Conditioning, but is a big step up from the heat of stop and go traffic and the noise of driving down the freeway with the windows down all the way. It sits on the passenger seat next to me on the box it shipped in. I think it makes the cabin feel like it's in the mid 80 degree range, certainly not like A/C, but far more tolerable. I would recommend this unit to anyone with a situation similar to mine. Old car, driving alone, and a steep repair bill to fix the A/C. Thanks, J. G. Denver, CO.

I wanted to let you know that the swampy T154 has been superb.. just the thing in our old trucks. I can't tell you how much better I feel after a day in the cab vs. the 100 degree heat we were living with before.. I'll be buying them for our other trucks this fall. Thanks, J. B. Milton-Freewater, OR.

You have a heck of a product here. I really do notice that the MW1 is there next to me. As a matter of fact I love the little thing and have already shown it to a co-worker whom I hope does not steal it out of my Jeep. I cannot find any fault with this at all. D. E. Redlands, CA

I have my new Swampy T154 cooler. It fits just right in my 66 Ford Econoline. I know it will work great, because my friend has one in his 64 Econoline. Thank you for quick delivery. J. G. Tucson, AZ.

I thank you for your speed and quality of distribution. I received my ICESTER AC12 (Ice water Model) this morning. I installed it in my (VW) Golf to test this strange object… I did not put the quantity of ice (approximately 8kgs) necessary to the correct operation but just some refills for a short test. I am astonished because that functions well, the air crossing the AC12 was definitely colder that that taken by the ventilation of origin of the car. M. D. Paudex, Switzerland

I am a letter carrier in Dallas Texas where it isn't only hot, hot, hot, but is also humid. A letter carrier friend who lives in Bakersville, CA bought your Swampy Model MW-1 and she says she loves it and it works great. G. M. Dallas, TX. -- (NOTE: Unfortunately we had to inform G.M. that the Model MW1 that worked so well in CA does not work well in Dallas because of the Humidity in Dallas)

The IM30 (Ice Water Model) works terrific in this big truck and my boss may be in contact as they have 60 trucks and this is the first system they have seen that works. R.P. Flint, MI.

"Got it yesterday thanks, and the IM20 (Ice Water Model) really helped cool my trip down 119 in a hot van!!! I love it.....many thanks! Next thing is to try it using ice rather than just water...... Best wishes and thanks for coming up with such a great product. You live in Arizona, so you understand!!!!" J. S. Tucson, AZ
