That would add way too much distraction for Jack. If he started with 5 pounds of dry ice he would have to weigh and measure it on the hour to determine the dissipation rate......and determine whether that rate varies with time. Also.......does the dry ice dissipate faster at 5000 feet than it does at 5025 feet , 6000 feet ? What direction is the truck facing and how fast is it traveling ? What about Coriolis effect ?

Hauled a small one around dirt roads in Maine for a couple years with no problem. Mine wasn't running while I was driving, not sure if that would make a difference or not.
I plugged it in every night.

Check the rated wattage for those receps... I have a 110 outlet in my Jeep but it's only rated for 150 watts (1.25 amps @120 volts) so basically is only suitable for a cell phone charger or other low draw device.

You called it white17. I've already put together dissipation tables with three scenarios; without a dog in the back, with one dog, and with two. Their addition of breaths per minute and the accompanying heat and increased humidity as a function of air circulation from the two side windows, compounded, of course, by the effects of the Coriolis input times the ambient temperature. Avagadro's number has to be factored in there somewhere, but may be offset by Mahalanobi's D-square. This calculation will vary when confounded by the metric tonnage of catfish filets, obviously their introduction temperature after thermal mass has been calculated. I figure at least 147 variables, so for analysis, I've got to haul my trailer with the Cray computer, and I've got to bring Seymour Cray along to run the thing. At this point, how much will it affect my 20.87954921 mpg?

Is that the raw MPG or the mean ? What about standard deviation ?

Give my regards to Seymour. If he looks closely at the river he may see more crayfish

We were fishing with Seymour and his boy down in the Snake Canyon one day, and his son said to his Pa, "Ain't this fishin' fun? All you do is talk about computers, and it kinda' sticks in my craw, Dad."

That's the weighted mean Ken.

You're killing me !!!


But seriously.......I need to refresh my memory. Does Mahalanobi's D-square, describe the distance between point P and the distribution of Avagadro's number of reciprocating voles ? Or am I confusing that with something else ?

Nope, Ken, you got it right, but it was determined antediluvian except during ophidian brumation.

HooBoy!

I figured as much. Thanks for the confirmation !!


I got to wondering .......since dry ice is frozen CO2, will the dog's breath increase or decrease the rate of dissipation ?? If it will decrease the rate, maybe you could just have them exhale into the cooler ??


What does a reciprocal mole leave in reciprocity for the grubs he has eaten ?

I don't rightly know. How do we know that mole will gopher the grubs?

Perhaps that mole will reciprocate with molasses?

Blind faith ??

Brother said when he had a cap/topper on his truck it was necessary only to plug in the freezer at night to run on 110 at a motel. This was Texas and New Mexico in winter.

Texas in summer without a cap/topper the inverter ran too much so he ran a very small generator in the truck bed so freezer could run as needed. Then plugged into 110 at night.

He then installed a 3,000 or 4,000 watt inverter and ran from that exclusively.

One year my wife and I drew back to back bull moose tags for the same year in two states. There was a weekend between the hunt weeks. She drew Maine and I drew New Hampshire for our first choice zones. In planning logistics for the adventure I was putting a full size chest freezer in an enclosed trailer and bolting a generator onto the trailer tongue. Then wife got horribly sick and we shredded the tags.

My 2019 F-350 has a factory 400 watt inverter mounted under the rear seat. There are two 110 outlets in the cab - one in the dash and one in the console in front of the rear seat.

I have an 05 TRD that has it.
R/Rear corner of the bed.

That's gonna cut down on your mileage even more Jack

They won't put out enough for a freezer. The invert that is built in on a Tacoma shuts down after so much amp draw. Won't run a freezer.

My 2014 chevy has one where the lighter used to be. It will charge a phone or a battery for a cordless drill 18v batt. Won't run an electric heater tried for curiosity sake. Green light starts blinking if over amp draw.

So Jack,
Did you find a freezer yet?

That 1.1 cu ft one? Probably get 10 marten hides in one. I used to be able to squeeze 2 or 3 in a quart zip lock up at the cabin for transport.
