ill throw in a lot of bottles of water jammed packed in the fridge this will more then likely prevent temp swings in the fridge . less on and offs . i could get it do 63with the window ac unit it will murder the electric and run almost all the time my goal here is to save some juice . i know of a way to make the window ac unit into a water chiller if i had a large need . you can easily take apart the window ac unit there is a coil or radiator looking gizmo if you dont know what a coil is . take it apart and expose this coil and put it into your tote or trash can so on it will cool the shit out of the water .Pack the fridge (or even better a mini freezer) with ice all around the air pump...it may work..
I like your way of thinking that's for sure!
I had absolutely no luck with this method.
Your pump has an inlet where it sucks air in from. That's where you need to focus your cold air In to some how. If you used a bucket, you'd want to use a tube or something in the outlet, maybe dropped down into the cold air of an isolated bucket with cold packs in it, lidded.just drill a small hole in the lid for your tube.
Thanks for this post. I was going to try it.
But again, all of this can be avoided with a water chiller.
I looked In to them. For some one with 15 or less gals it's not a bad idea. But those use a peltier which is Completely different then a refrigerant based one.
