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.

For 1 most people don’t have generators large enough to run there big ac units and fans don’t do a damn thing… Now for people with windows units a generators would run them but solar would not unless it’s a big panel. And I saw a comments on humidity, that person is just stupid this thing is meant to be blowing on u and not really capable of cooling your whole house

Lillian Torres ,did you ever make this ?
Tommy Parker that’s so funny I just made one! I will post the video at some point this week lol
The only way this works during a power outage, is to have a generator, It takes electricity to run the fan.
Steve Broad you need this bro solid idea
Must be easy to have blocks of ice lying around for cooling during a summer or hot environment blackout.
