Solar direct air conditioner

Jage's purchase of the Kyocera 185 watt panel got me thinking about options for solar air conditioning.

It gets a little warm in these parts. It would be nice to be able to escape the heat from about 11 an to 4 pm.

Even a small portable ac requires too many panels.

I wonder if a small freezer like the SunDanzer could double as a van ac? Put refletix in all the windows, crank it to full power and blow a small fan into the open door.

I guess the way to see if this setup has any chance of lowering the temp is to set up a cheap 120v refridge or freezer and see how much it lowers the temp on a 100 F sunny day.
Just thinking out loud.
