If you made the ice with a portable solar powered icemaker (they exist apparently) and used a camping solar powered esky then it would cost almost nothing to run.

I wet a tea towel last week and sat under the fan.....it worked well but wasn't quiet enough- so I wet a small cot size cotton sheet and draped it over us - heaven!triciahttp://www.littleecofootprints.com/noreply@blogger.com
