Eco Factor: Car air conditioner made from recycled materials.
While Toyota’s Prius will sport on-board solar panels that will take care of the car’s air conditioning and ventilation needs, Instructables user CameronSS has tried to find a way everybody can flaunt a green AC in their vehicles. CameronSS has made an air conditioner that works on a 12V DC supply from materials that might be present in your garage.
The gadget is made using a portable cooler, a few fans and uses ice as the refrigerant. If you think that the device won’t be effective, the author tries to clarify your doubts by testing the device in his truck, which was cooled by as much as 30 degrees. Check out the detailed instructions on the DIY process at Instructables.
