As far as cooling the unit I built does ok. You just have to use large chunks of ice and they won't melt as fast.

I freeze two liter bottle with water, plus use five gel packs.

I have central AC so, I don't need to run out and buy a window ac unit.

This unit helps out a lot, and keeps the bedroom cool enough for me. Running the central unit just adds to much to my electrical bill.

Anyway just wanted to clear that up.
yeah man the water cooled unit works great otherwise, but where i live its like 110 outside, and running the central AC only cools the room if the closet door is open......then smell. lol

Had to invent something else lol.
