The Bay Air 12V A/C System
The Bay Air 12V A/C System
I know this has been discussed before, but I just want to be sure that I am making the right decision before I spend $1500! :eek: It gets hot on the lake in Texas, and I would like to have some kind of cooling system for the cabin. My Bullet has a large "cooler" next to the sink in the cabin, but I doubt that I will use it to store drinks. It can be used as the "cooler" for the A/C system. Has anyone ever used one of these? How well did it work? Thanks! :cool: http://www.bayairac.com/images/UnitFrontViewLarge.jpg |

It's basically a swamp cooler. They do work rather well, as long as you keep up with the ice. The built-in cooler in your bullet is about the same size as mine, and that should hold enough ice to keep cool during a day of boating.

Re: The Bay Air 12V A/C System
Interesting but I think the cooling potential is limited.Curious what the price is.Mermaid makes a 12 volt air conditioner that is a 110 unit running off an inverter,seems to be a well built unit all stainless and well thought out.

You can buy a 5K cruisair for less a little less than $1,500. Spend a few bucks on a 2500 watt inverter and an extra battery and you'll have something MUCH better for just a little more money.....
( BTW: I ordered a 5K cruisair myself last week) |

Forget that! Go here: http://www.swampy.net/hprices.html I have experience with the swampy's, they really do work quite well. I really like the M300, very versatile and completely portable. |
Re: The Bay Air 12V A/C System
I can get a Zepher 5K BTU A/C for $1200, so I'm gonna pass on the Bay Air system.
Thanks guys! :cool: |
Re: The Bay Air 12V A/C System
That's a nice unit, but it will require about 500 watts to run.
It'll Need a gen. |
