Frank,
>and use as little precious battery power as possible.
I had suggested to David that he could connect the chili
bin
to the CO2 scrubber outlet. As long as it didn't impede the flow of air
through
the scrubber, it would utilize one less fan & help remove the moisture
that's a
bi-product of scrubbing.

Hi Alex. I believe David's goal with this device is to provide a little
cooler air when a psub is on or near the surface. A psub submerged should cool
down quickly but also heats up quickly when on the surface in an area like
Florida.
It's been mid to high 90's here lately. The water temp is hovering
around 84 degrees as measured at the beach but I'm pretty sure it drops
rapidly as the depth is increased.
Now if we can figure out how to drop the humidity level in the air. Any
device being designed must be simple to operate, cheap to build, and use as
little precious battery power as possible.
