TIP: Blower/Fan from HF - ALEXB - 07-21-2021
If you have 110v Power in your rig, then I'd highly suggest using the following type of Blower.
I've found that it works Better than AC in a high humidity climate like FL; Keeps you Dry (when used with Venilation Opening at both ends your vehicle, for airflow).
Also nice is that you can easily "Aim" it, and the airflow is quite "directed/concentrated"... much more-so than the typical radial fan designs.
For sake of comparision, I used to use 3ea 12v "Muffin Fans", where-as in comparision this Blower is pushes ~10x more air than all three those combined... and decently quiet too (with Adjustable Speed).

ps: I'm sure that if you were so inclined, the 110v motor could be replaced by a 12v version, and still work pretty good; offhand I'd try to swap in a motor from a 12v RV Heater for that effort

Update: I like the 1st blower so much, that I bought a 2nd one a month ago.
Between the two, it is the Cat's Meow! I can place them side-by-side, or more commonly, I have one drawing air in through screened window, then another stop foot of my bed blowing directly on/across me at night... Is Amazingly Comfortable!
I am renting an RV Lot, and my landlord is amazed at this setup as I am the *Only* tenant here who is Not running AC 24/7 (I'm not using it at all, actually).
