GE Porta-Col^Hol and other GE Porta-products

[Whirled One]

For whatever reason, over the past few weeks I've noticed several GE Porta-Cool / Carry-Cool air conditioners sitting out on the curb for trash day, and this got me thinking about something that perhaps someone here knows more about.

Back in the early "heyday" of the (in)famous Porta-Color TV, General Electric must have felt that it was successful enough (or at least well-known enough) that it would be worthwhile to try to extend the Porta-Color's marketing concept to other products. For example:

GE Porta-Cool: A line of "portable" window air-conditioners. Well, "luggable," anyway. They really are quite a bit lighter in weight and less bulky than most window A/C units, especially for their time. They're housed in a plastic case and have a carrying handle, and are at least tolerably well-enough balanced for carrying. I don't know when the Porta-Cool was introduced; probably late 1960s..? GE made them in various guises until sometime in the 1980's, perhaps..? (Anyone know?). Many of them have the name "Carry-Cool" on them instead of "Porta-Cool"; I'm not sure if there's any significance to that,
but it seems like the later models tend to say "Carry-Cool"-- but I've seen some that look pretty old that have that name too, so I don't know. Also, GE sold these under the Hotpoint brand as well. Not only are the Porta-Cools comparatively light, but they also seem to have a fairly low current draw, even considering their fairly low cooling output. (I've noticed that the 5000 BTU version is rated at 7.5A at 120V, and the 4000 BTU version even less). [...which means you could run your Porta-Cool *and* your Porta-Color on the same 15A circuit, plus the A/C would offset the heat generated by that all-tube TV! ]

GE Porta-Fi: This was an optional 'wireless' extension speaker system that could be used with certain GE stereo systems. The "portable" extension speaker/amp unit still required AC power, though. I think it used a carrier-current type of transmission system like some intercom systems, but I'm not sure.

GE Show-n-Tell player: This was a portable childrens' record player combined with a simple rear-projection slide viewer that used film strips mounted in long cardboard mounts. The whole affair looks like a portable TV with a phono on top. The film-advance mechanism is syncronized to the phono (albiet rather crudely-- I suspect it's just a mechanical coupling that advances the film every X number of revolutions of the turntable). This was designed for "read-along"-type stories for kids. While this product doesn't have "Porta-" in the name, the earlier versions of this player do share some styling cues with GE portable TV sets, and the Porta-Color in particular, which I'd guess is intentional.

Were there any other examples of GE products that were apparently designed to build on the "Porta-Color" name/design?
