Subject:      Re: Inline Heaters

Someone mentioned how they thought my idea of a power supply fan would be ineffective. Well I tested it by using a 9V battery, and blowing thru an 18 foot linoleum roll. The result? Pretty darn good, and prolly a bit better than the amount of air you get up an the windsheild of a split window bus anyway. So I'm going to go ahead with my plan. The only difficult part will be finding scraps of pipe to use - I don't wanna but a who length just for this experiment!

Also, I bought another very small fan to use with the fridge on the inside, and another, temperature sensitive one to use on the coils. Now I just gotta get some wire and a thermometer to finish setting it and and conduct some tests. Specifically, how long it takes to cool a six pack :)
