Ive been looking for something like this for the past year. Thanks for showing this.
I have a couple questions. Im looking to cool a couple lights with ease using air cooled hoods as well. Having temps around 82 with a dual hose 12k btu and it sucks
If i connected a 15k btu LG unit (or any other 110 connection that has more BTU for around 500 or so) from home depot that is digital could it be connected to a sentinal or would it just turn it on but not to cooling mode?
You shouldnt have to run the AC 20 hours a day, thats inefficient as shit and probably due to using a portable. If you don't want to cut a hole in your tent then build the box as I described. The weatherstripping around the wooden frames on the front and back makes it really easy to pull on and off for cleaning the AC...or returning it in your case. Just remember to get the same modelAlso it seems that any AC unit being run 20 hours a day wears it down and it gets way worse after a month or two of constant using at high power. I was going to buy a window unit and return it every 60 days or so as home depot / wallmart have 90 day return policy in order to constantly. Is there a way to set this box up with those AC units that can be removed easily and a new AC put in every 60 days or is that not worth it?
Should I match CFM for the air intake from the side of the AC unit as posted in that post you linked us to?
I just dont want to get stuck with an AC unit that shits out after a couple months of heavy usage even though I dont like returning and returning products.
Thanks for your input
if i were to cut a hole in the tent the ambient temps would still be very high considering its exhausting into the garage and not out a window. it seems like the box method is good but yeah maybe just install the AC unit up high but then you may as well put a plywood wall on one side of ur tent with AC built into it
