What's a vapochill worth on ebay (or here in the bought+sold area)? I would
guess that it would be more cost effective ($ per BTU moved) to sell the vapo and use the $ to buy a more powerful system (like the mentioned-above wallmart AC or maybe a dehumidifier). If you used a dehumidifier you
might be able to get the evaporator coil into a bucket/reservoir without having to discharge / cut / solder / recharge.
Of course, I'm totally out of my depth here, never having built a chiller (erm... well other than a chiller for mixed drinks for a frat house I lived in in the early 70's - think "Animal House" but not as dirty - and no "double secret probation", many of the profs and admins came to our bashes
). This was before we had any idea that freon was bad for the ozone layer and it was
cheap.
Not to mention (yet again) that Jackyl is moving to non-refrigerated water systems...
