At worthy farm campsite .. no hook up boiling hot -attached wine ice bag underneath fan-ta dah! Not sure post will work but trying anyway !

Great effort. I’d be worried it didn’t get caught up and spray the van with bits of ice

Good idea ... he could make his own Slush Puppies!

Might need a bucket to catch the drips.

My idea was to use a 5 litre water bottle. Might build it one day.
Cut a hole about 2” above the bottom in the side big enough to put a fizzy pop size bottle with frozen water in it.
Put a 5v or 12v computer fan over the hole.

Can we have some of your warmth over here at Twinwood in Bedfordshire, it’s been freezing all day.

mind when it’s hot and humid, you may get a little cool pool of condensation drips under it!!

great lateral thinking…does it work?!

Cold here too at Stratfod upon Avon. Ain't you glad your away from home

Worked a treat, roof fan is over the sink so condensing drips fell into sink, ice bag well below fan so no chance of entanglement. Bought a bag of ice for G n T ( schoolgirl error forgot ice bags) and it was too big for freezer so invented The Air Con..... Signal here very intermittent but it is fab being back on the festival site - everyone greeting everyone like long lost friends

Am I right in thinking the fan is blowing into the MH ?

Could you not use frozen ice blocks to do the same effect ? Then you would not have the wetness risk ?

Don’t switch your fan to extract. !!

I ran the Leeds Liverpool canal race night before last it was freezing at foulridge tunnel and rookie error forgot my tights (running tights before you get and ideas!) and had to bail at 85miles. It was freezing!

Cheers James

In my gym I bought a huge fan , an Aldi ice maker , 20 x 10 cm x 6cm Tupperware box , a Lakeland oven chip basket ( the ice goes in there and as it melts it drips into the Tupperware box ) , if its proper warm I add a block of ice from a Tupperware box from the freezer in the house .
I wouldn’t say it cools my gym but the temp doesn’t rise , I top up the basket as the ice maker forms new ice during the gym session .
Happy with the arrangement.
