Hi everyone , This is Sahas chitlange from india. Its Summer in india , and temperature increases to 40degree Celsius with frequent power cuts. so I thought of making a MINI AC that woud'nt take much of energy and would work on multiple power options. This MINI AC can be powered by three ways
1) Solar Panel
2) 12 V discarded battery
3) Direct 220V AC
I chose to power it from DIRECT 220V AC . I can do it with other tow option also .
It wont take much time and money to build this MINI AC . the total cost was around RS 100/- because most of the items were found in the junk.
Gather the Materials

Materials required to make this Mini AC are
1) Stiff cooling pad brown colour
2) A old computer SMPS fan
3) A 12V 1A Powersupply
4) Solar panel 12V 10W ( optional )
5) A discarded 12V 7Ah UPS battery (Optional)
