Air Conditioning provides the best possible relief from
heat in either the Humid or Dry Areas of the World. The Dual System
of the MG3 produces Air Conditioning using Ice or Evaporative
Cooling using only Water --- your choice!
In dry Desert areas the most popular Golf Cart Cooler uses Evaporative
Cooling like the MightyKool MG3 or the $800+- Cool
Breeze®.
Then under Humid Conditions a battery operated Golf Cart Air Conditioner
should be used like the MightyKool MG3 or the $2,300+-
Masterflux®.
Using energy from your battery system; the Cool Breeze uses 72 Watts; the Masterflux uses 330
Watts while the New MightyKool MG3 uses 41
Watts.
We could not find where Masterflux lists BTU, however a Refrigerated system using 330 Watts produces around 4,000+- BTU. While the MG3 using only 41 Watts produce up to 8,000+- BTU using Ice & Water.
A negative to the MG3 may be that it uses Ice instead of Battery Energy to provide 'True' Air Conditioned Comfort, however your Batteries may think this is a Positive in the long run. Another negative might be the design as the MG3 looks more like a Hummer than a Corvette. We did not add a superficial aerodynamic frame as we felt it was more important to provide easy installation plus keep the weight on the top to a minimum.
Tapping
into 12-Volts is simple as the MG3 uses only 3.4 amps (41
Watts) so that you can even operate it on an inexpensive 12-volt
"Power Station" which comes with a built in charger.
Or you may use a Flexible Cigarette Lighter Receptacle that clamps
onto your Golf Cart battery pack. Both of these items are typically
available at Auto Parts stores, Target, Walmart, K-Mart, etc.
All of the batteries may also produce 12 volts with a proper converter.
"My brother and I found the installation process quite
simple and took less than an hour to complete. The only change
we made, was to replace the cigarette lighter end with alligator
clips. We applied foam insulation tubing to the hoses as you suggested.
We found a slim line ice chest that fit perfectly in the basket
between the back of the seat and the golf bag rack. The hoses
were just the right length to fit our cart. The cooler works great.
We are the envy of all our golfing buddies. I feel you will be
getting some additional order soon. Sincerely M. B."

The 12-Volt 3-speed MG3 uses the
same basic system we have shipped all over the World to individuals
and governments for use in Vehicles, Boats & Aircraft to reduce
Humidity while providing Cold Crisp Air. Swampy Technicians used
this same basic system to develop a Golf Cart Model in limited
quantities for 2008.
The MG3 rises a mere 7 3/4 " in height above the roof. Check
out other Specifications
You cannot blow air into or through ice
without increasing humidity which is a form of Evaporative Cooling.
Some companies claim to have Air Conditioners, however they increase
humidity leading to more discomfort in humid areas.
Understanding this problem our Swampy Company developed
and has produced 'True' battery operated Air Conditioning since
2001. As example our systems are used in vehicles for Surveillance
under the most severe heat soaked humid conditions, such as in
direct sunlight.
Golf Cart Evaporative Cooling systems provide relief from the
heat in dry desert climates because the cool air produced can
be as much as 25 degrees cooler than the ambient air. However,
in the case of our new MightyKool MG3 Dual Cooling System, using
water only, the cool air produced will be at least 30 degrees
cooler under the same circumstances.
As an example if the ambient temperature on a dry day in the desert were 109 degrees the cool air produced from a well-designed evaporative cooler might be 84+-, however the cool air would be 79+- degrees using the MG3 with water only. Under the same circumstances the MG3 would produce 65+- degrees using Ice & Water!
You do not need an enclosure on your Golf Cart to enjoy the cold air produced, although you may if you wish. If you are using water only you need some ventilation for Evaporative Cooling.
We furnish all you need except the ice chest, of your choice, that would typically be located behind your seat. Place the pump in the ice chest and plug in the 12-volt cigarette lighter then add a small amount of water and fill with ice, turn the MG3 on & you will feel the cold air in seconds. The water lines to the pump are seven feet long.
All of our Ice Models are capable
of using from 15 to 20 pounds of ice per hour during the heat
of the day when operating it. We began this project in 1995 and
the first models would only use 5 to 10 pounds per hour, which
was not adequate. Now enjoy True Air Conditioned comfort with
the MightyKool MG3!
The method the MG3 uses to produce cold air is possible because of many thousands of hours of engineering and the Power of Ice when used in a properly designed system. The MG3 may be installed by your favorite Dealer or by providing a 7" square hole in the roof that will easily support the 10-pound weight. A key hole saw may even be used to cut the soft top material and you may wish to go up & review the ideas on Tapping into 12-Volts.
If using water only in the evaporative or dual cooling
models; one gallon (3.75 liters) will last around two to three
hours in the daytime and around five or six hours during night
time. Use any clean domestic or lake Water.
The "ice models" are capable of using up to 20 pounds
(9.0 kilograms) of ice per hour during the day and around 13 pounds
(5.9 kilograms) if ice during night time hours.
The MightyKool Model MW1 will last from 50 to 80 hours
and the MightyKool Models M200, M300, MG3 & MK3 will last
from 25 to 35 hours on a fully charged 105 amp hour Deep Cycle
Battery.
