I tried it on the MH, but the water kept sloshing out of the pan. Really!

Had to ask, a friend had a swamp cooler for his house in Oklahoma on Lake Eufuala and I didn't know if it was possible to adapt one to the MH unless there was some form of internal water coil that the air flowed over. If anyone builds this I get half of the cash as its now copyrighted, trademarked and possibly part of a new LLC.

I invented those long before I was born! No wonder people said I'm ahead of my time.

Same technology, just different setup, they're all swamp coolers  .

Neck, call it what you want, but my electric bill more than doubles when the monsoons hit and I have to switch to AC.

An A/C and a swamp cooler are two entirely different critters  .
Yer power bill bites ya in the butt cause it uses a high amperage compressor to work, where as the swamp cooler just drives a small fan.

Thanks for the lesson Neck. I never would have know that. 
Did you know that swamp coolers don't work well when the dew point is high? Humidity doesn't matter as much as dew point.

Dew point is what makes it feel 'muggy'..
