I'm hoping to finish up my cooler this week. My plan is to use a window AC and some type of controller. Coolbot seems to be the easy route but I'm looking at other options too.
I used a Ranco controller for mine. You have to use a window ac that has a manual dial rather than a digital control. You bypass the thermostat on the ac . They are much cheaper than a coolbot but maybe not as easy to use initially .I'm hoping to finish up my cooler this week. My plan is to use a window AC and some type of controller.

Although they are more expensive, I bet you’ll be happy with it. I don’t think I’ve ever read a post from someone complaining about theirs.I'll have to use a coolbot then. I picked up an 18,000btu A/C but it is digital.
