No one here needs 9k BTU's of cooling. No one.


WOW - every trailer or RV I have ever seen has a 13,000 Btu roof unit sometimes - up to 5 units on a Bus.
I guess I could just use a bag of ice on my head and save 99.999999% of my money :lol:
I'll look at your build so I can learn from you.

Thanks OTTCT

It's sorta sad to see how no one here is interested in this stuff :cry:
the window AC & flooded batteries will be choice #1 here.
Well maybe 50 years from now ..... Someone will think I missed that boat in 2014. :lol:

I will be using a 9,000 BTU Mini Split on my trailer build this fall. GREE from Home Depot. There will be lots of other unconventional "stuff" as well. :eyebrows2:

I agree keep it simple, ours could be reproduced for a couple of hundred and can be left home. 5,000 BTU
