The MightyKool® Model MG4 is the
World's First Roof Top Golf Cart Air Conditioner
(to the best of our knowledge) Specifications
Air Conditioning provides the best possible relief from
heat in either the Humid or Dry Areas of the World. The Dual System
of the MG4 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 MG4 or the $800+- Cool
Breeze®.
Then under Humid Conditions a battery operated Golf Cart Air Conditioner
should be used like the MightyKool MG4 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 MG4 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 MG4 using only 41 Watts produce
up to 8,000+- BTU using Ice &
Water.
A negative to the MG4 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 MG4 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 MG4 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 MG4 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 2007.
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' 12-volt Air Conditioning since 2001. Our
systems are used under the most severe heat soaked humid conditions,
such as in enclosed vehicles sitting in direct sunlight for surveillance.
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. In the case of
our new MightyKool MG4 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 110 degrees the cool air produced from a well-designed
evaporative cooler would be 85+- and 80+- degrees with the MG4
using water only. Under the same circumstances the MG4 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 MG4 on
& you will feel the cold air in seconds.
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 MG4!
The method the MG4 uses to produce cold air is possible
because of many thousands of hours of design and the Power
of Ice when used in a properly designed system. The MG4 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.
What are the Dimensions, Amperage Draw and Water Capacity?
One gallon (3.75 liters) of water will last around two to
three hours in the daytime and four to five hours during the night
when used for evaporative cooling in dry desert climates. The
"Ice Water" models are capable of using from 10 pounds
(4.5 kilograms) up to 20 pounds (9.0 kilograms) of ice per hour,
or more, depending on the ambient temperature and day or night
operation.
A 105 Deep Cycle battery, "not being charged", allow
the MW1, MW2 to operate for 50 to 80 hours and the "Ice Water"
models like the MK3, MK4, MAC & M400 will operate for 25 to
35 hours before the battery needs charging. The Swampy Models
will operate about 8 hours before the battery would need charging
as they draw more energy.
Evaporative
Cooler Models typically use Water only
& the Model AC 12 uses Ice only
The M200, M400, MK3, MK4,
MAC, MG4, & IM30 Provide; Dual Air Conditioning using Ice
or Water
All Dual Systems automatically
dispose of the excess condensation collected
