On our recent Florida vacation, we stopped off to visit #1 son. We were very impressed at how comfortable his apartment was. And surprised since I knew he set his AC thermostat in the 80s. (If he set his thermostat lower, Florida would be a money-losing proposition due to AC costs.) He used a pair of cheap oscillating tower fans. He said they cost almost nothing to run. Particularly compared to AC. The temps outside were in the 90s. The humidities were bone melting. And his apartment was very comfortable. I purchased 2 immediately upon our return.

It's disproportionately dry there right now - so you ain't seen nothing like bone-melting. To a Californian, maybe. Half the state's on fire from day to day right now.

That probably explains why you were able to live with just the fans, too.
