Chum lee,
Where I live--I do on occasion run a humidifier in my RV. But never in the summer. Our relative humidity goes from 4% to 84% on a yearly basis.
Even with our relatively low humidity I found the swamp cooler I bought, rated for 500 square feet, did just about nothing for the 241 square feet in my class C.
Here is the one I was referencing: https://www.turbokool.net/product-p/2b-0001-turbokool-swamp-cooler.htm
They don't share the picture--how odd of them.
Did you open a window to allow the outside air pulled into the evaporative cooler to push the trailer air outside? These systems are commonly used for interior cooling in dry climates where the cooling is greater and increase in interior humidity is a desired benefit. We used evaporative cooling in Dallas when I was a kid with cooler pads in three windows and a centrally located attic fan that pulled outside air through the wet pads and exhausted interior air out through the attic.
