HTGsupply Ice boxes anyone used one

[HBxNLmaster]

I just found these things called ice boxes on HTG supply and it said that it could eliminate the need for a/c and make it so you dont have to vent hot air out of the room seems to me like these might work but i dont really understand the concept and would like to see if someone has used these or something like them and if they work very well they arent priced that high, but i think they require a water chiller which can be pricey so let me know what you guys think.

not sure how to post link hope this works but if not go to htgsupply.com and go under ventilation and then click on water cooled http://htgsupply.com/viewproduct.asp?productID=56054

They're very cool but you have to plan properly. Here's a thread:

Sounds kind of complicated, and you need one for each light, and then all that other stuff.
It's cool though

It would be nice to have an effective, QUIET, alternative to the AC I run now(loudest thing in the room)

Hey, I was wondering, if you put your res in your refrigerator, if that would be a feasible way? I am in an apt, so I can't rig something up without my risk factor going to high! potluvr1

Looks like a $30 heater core with a shroud... I'm in the wrong business...

after some research i think these things are the bees knees lol i love stupid sayings like that anyways yeah kitty you could use these to replace your ac from what ive read you will have some money in the set up tho but it all depends on how big of a set up youve got the most expensive part is the water chiller you will need
