Ever had to deal with a power blackout during the hot summer months? Then you know just how important keeping cool can be.
Over on The Good Survivalist we found a great tip to save you money and keep you cool:
Seems every year people die due to heat. Keeping your home cool in the summer can be very expensive if you use your air conditioner. This air conditioner is very simple to make, and can be made in a few minutes if you are handy.Even if you are not handy you’ll be able to make one of these DIY air conditioners. One of the nice things about this air conditioner is that it will give you up to 6 hours of coolness. This thing works so well you may need to put on a sweatshirt! To make one of these babies you need a few simple tools, a couple of 5 gallon buckets, along with a few other items. Everything is shown in the video.
Wow great idea
if it was 50,0 it is still a wonderful idea. especially for older people that don’t have air and are suffering in the heat.
Well now that ya’ll are into it, I may as well check it out !
That is cool and worth the time in watching !
I made one it did do as good as what they said it would
Doesn’t work we built one using ice chests to insulate a huge block of ice for several hours. The air is cold coming out but not enough of it is produced and it’s not cold enough.
It worked had to use a bigger fan with ice chest

Where do you get the insulation for the bucket? Could someone PM me where to get it?
