OOI, have you ever seen or used a cooler box that works by the
evaporation of water because I haven't? shrug

I'm aware of cheap air-con units that use that principal and I've used
/ made my own impromptu ones for some milk or beer when camping but
I've never seen a commercial one. Not saying they don't exist ...

evaporative coolers are well known technology.


Yes, I know, but we are talking specifically about 'evaporative cooler
boxes' here. Have you ever had / seen one?


FWIW I've made them and used ready made ones.


Ok.

They have their uses.


How do they compare to a Peltier cooler?

But it has little to do with tumble driers.

They might, depending what you were setting out to do (dry clothes or
create a cooler box). ;-)
