*UPDATE* I did end up moving the coolant pipe and coiling it horizontally on top of the mini split instead of vertically behind it. Without the extra room next to the mini split I decided to coil it on top and not beside the unit. I think with it coiled vertically behind the unit, the compressor was having problems circulating the refrigerant.
EG4 24k BTU Solar Mini Split Plug & Cool Install On 5th Wheel Camper
This thing is amazing, it feels like the arctic in our camper. Now if you wanted to install one of their 12k btu units which is 120v instead of the 220 the 24k unit needs, you could connect it to your system if your rocking solar on the roof and a nice inverter and also run it for a couple hours at night before bed. I googled typical ac usage and a household ac can use 72 KW a day, where this unit is doing maybe 15-18 KW a day. Which makes it super efficient. Read the manual to figure out how many solar panels you will need.
I do get a small kickback from links. Video is for educational purposes only, I am not responsible for what you do.
