Just to let you know I am a local truck driver here in the valley and my company like many out there nowadays don't want us to idle when we get stuck somewhere waiting to get loaded or unloaded. Well today I got stuck sitting at one of the shippers over in Tolleson for about 4 hours and while my buddies in the trucks be side me were cookin' I was comfortable thanks to my MW1. Thanks for a great product! M.H. Black Canyon City, AZ


T.D. of Atlanta, GA. called 06/03/2008 to order additional cooling filters as she purchased a MW1 for her husband for his truck Sleeper in 2005. When she ordered the MW1 we explained that this type of cooling was not as effective in a humid area as it is in a dry area. She ordered it anyway and her husband says it blows cool air while he sleeps plus has saved a lot of Fuel these past two years. (Other) -[Testimonials]


We shipped another MW1 on June 4, 2008 to R.N. of Carrollton, GA. as he said even if he gets to use it a few nights it will pay for itself quickly in Fuel Savings. He just did not want to deal with the ice as he feels he can normally get by just fine with the 10 to 15 degree cooler air than just a fan. If it is too uncomfortable because of higher than normal heat and humidity he can still crank up the engine.


Normally we would suggest the MK3 for humid areas as it can be used the same as the MW1 with water only as an Evaporative Cooler. However if humidity gets too oppressive the MK3 has the advantage of being able to be used with ice to produce dry Air Conditioned air. The MK3 may also be used with the reusable ice packs, which are not as effective as ice, however cool the air more than just water alone.

The MightyKool MW1 utilizes the evaporative system of cooling and is most effective in dryer climates of the world. Many Truckers that use this model set it in an area at the foot of their Sleeper with the window open behind it. Then another window is opened so that a steady flow of cool air is directed across the bunk providing a good comfortable sleep.


The MK3 is used in conjunction with an ice chest with either water only for Evaporative Cooled air like the MW1, however as this is also an Air Conditioner the windows may remain closed as long as ice is used.

You do not need any special battery set up or charging system. Operate the MW1 or MK3 from your 12-volt cigarette lighter source as one batteery will give 25 to 50 hours of service before needing a charge.
