    My cooler a/c

    Just finished this one and it works great.I used 2 Noctua 120mm cpu fans(19 decibels at 1300 rpms),small marine ice chest(25 qt) from Academy,lawnmower battery,and 2 -3" vents and couplers.Dead silent and moves a good amount of air.Ready to try it out next week in my new Krivoman blind.

          Great idea!

          Do the fans blow in opposite directions?

            They are both blowing into the cooler.The cool air comes out of the top through the 3" vents.I added 3" couplers so I can rotate the vents also.

                  I think I might go get the parts at fry's right now....lol

                  how long have you run it till the ice melts? any thermometer action for numbers?

                  I wonder how dry ice would work out

                      I would think dry Ice would make it like a rock concert in your blind (fog machine).

                        Be careful if in a closed blind with dry ice.

                            Any idea of how long you can run that battery before it goes down? Are you carrying the battery back to camp to recharge or are you using a solar panel?
