The kid is only good to 500w. I will get an all new system for this ride.
I have the 144" wheelbase. I haven't even started measuring yet. Still insulating. But I think 250w panels would fit well without overhanging too much. Again, without measuring, I'm guessing I could fit 3 or 4. 4 would be ideal. 1000w rated.
I've looked at mini swamp coolers, and they seem cool, but seems like they blow through water and would actually require more weight on board and more trips to get water. As opposed to a window unit which is that, a genny, and a 5 gallon jerry.
I would have a reinforced hinge and rear rack put on the van, and mount it on the back door. I could store it at a friend's, or get a storage site. But I am very curious about this unit you mentioned (that's what she said).
The desert gets killer hot, and stays hot at night for many months. I have trouble sleeping when it's over 90. And there are many days it doesn't dip under 100 at night. I've done many nights where I only sleep a few scattered hours and it's the worst. I don't want to get used to AC and then be unable to sleep without it because lame. But, I do want to sleep better. I'll experiment with fans and stuff before I really commit to AC.
