I have never heard of a coolbot till now. 28 years in the refrigeration business tells me to be very cautious. Air conditioning compressors are different than refrigeration compressors, in that they are made to operate at specific suction pressures(back pressure). In order to maintain 38F with an air conditioning compressor you need to maintain a 20F coil. That means a typical R22 machine would have to run at 43psig. When it would have been designed to run at 62-68psig. Oil return to the compressor would be a huge concern for me. But hey, its on the internet so it must work!
