I was thinking on the order which is solar powered charger & supply like say
a batch of muffin fans from the computer P/S ? I heard something like that
some time back to cool the attic to a house besides free electricity &
environmentally friendly.
as to humidity problem, I would go to a place that sells dehumidifiers (
around $130.00 ) the GE model has a hose attachment @ the bottom of the tank
and run a drain tube on the floor to the outside. pvc flex tubing or cheap
water pipe at home builders supply would work, or a plain garden hose would
work.
just some thoughts ...
