How hot does it get in there with both tumblers running? Hope I can get that Rock Lobster song by the B52s out of my head now.

Locker is in shade most of the day, plus I leave the doors cracked open but I can still feel it is warmer inside than outside. I am thinking about putting a couple of vents in to help with cooling. Hope it will be warm enough this winter so water went freeze.

That's what I was thinking! I like the song though.

I'd put the tumblers on the bottom so that when they leak it will be easier to clean up.

Just took temps. with infrared Thermometer. AR-2 motor temp 120.6° F, MP-1 motor temp 129° F. AR-2 sits with the motor close to the door, MP-1 motor is in the back. Air temp 6 inches above the AR-2 was 92° F, MP-1 93° F. I also placed an outdoor thermometer on the shelf above the tumbler shelf, after 35 minutes it was reading 85° F. Air outside locker at door was 83° F.
