I just spent the last 2 months in Alaska and used this to battle the condensation problem. It’s a small usb fan I purchased off amazon for 15 bucks and it did wonders. I connected it to reflectix using the provided bolts and used adhesive Velcro to attach it to the window. I folded back the inside window and covering and allowed a area to be able to vent on the outside storm flap. I also opened the furthest turnbuckle latch to allow cross ventilation. It took care of most of my condensation.

Very clever. What were the coldest temps where it worked well?
Worked pretty well down to negitive 5. It works great with only one person. A few late night card games with 3 or 4 people and you could se some condensation building on the soft sides.
 
Good deal !

Works for you and that's what matters. :D

Never had night time nibblers come in thru the turnbuckle port ? I had to add a wire mesh.
