Artic Cool Mister

Postby Rainier70 » Fri Jul 25, 2014 11:31 pm

I saw this on a different forum and thought it was pretty cool.

For those of us that live in the dry hot west it might be worth sacrificing the room to tote one once in awhile.

WOW! I am sooooooooo tempted to get one of those and fill it with my DIY natural (essential oils) mosquito repellant and turn it on in the backyard just off the back deck in the evenings! It could change my life :thinking:

Oh, I want that! 8)

It would even be great in my bedroom right now (the kids both have room swamp coolers, but not me!).

The nearest one is in Albuquerque, though, and I'm working tomorrow. It says they'll ship to my home for free, though.

They don't have these in stock at our local BORG. The fan looks like the Ryobi 18v portable fan that we take camping. I probable could add a mister to our fan somehow.

Tom- I just looked at local stocks around DFW...they show from 2 at my nearest store up to 18 in Euless. Try again, if you want one.

I looked at one of them today but just can't see spending 100$ for a fan while camping and then having to get a batterie with it maybe when they go down in price

You can put some of these

in a section of PVC and hook to a garden hose or a new pressurized weed sprayer. They work awesome when the humidity is low (<20%), above 40% they seem to just get you wet (which can be refreshing). I once saw several of these placed in one end of a children's fabric play tunnel which was then hoisted into a tree. The mist cooled the air which sank through the tunnel and actually provided a cool breeze underneath.
