Room temp during dry

So I started working on my wardrobe box for drying and testing out RH/temp.
First off, is this what you were describing? I know you mentioned making C cuts, I have one on each side of the box.
My other follow up, how many bottles of frozen water do you place inside?
I tested with just a 1 liter frozen bottle, dropped the temp at the bottom of the box by 5°, down to 70, but the top of the box was still in the 75° range.
Should I just add more bottles, or do you think 75° with an appropriate RH is manageable?

I used a different type of box layed on its end and made a few c cuts on the back and sides and left the front kinda open...the front was basically the top of the box with all the flaps kinda pushed closed and loosely taped shut so I could open and close to check. I used several bottles on the bottom ranging from pints to L size...just put a few in until it gets your temp down to where you want it, I was shooting for 55-60 and have a few spare bottles ready to go in the fridge too. 75 is too hot. The box was in a room with a ceiling fan on and an oscillating fan blowing across the box...the c cuts were used to direct airflow into the box, so if you need a few more on the sides to redirect air, that's cool. 55-60° 55-60%

Thanks guys. I’ll start playing around to see how much it takes to get temp down all over. I’ve been using this frozen bottle method inside my grow tent to try and keep those temps down too, so luckily I have a bunch of frozen bottles to play with
