EUHOMY 8000BTU Portable Air Conditioner
B0DXFKXR93
This air conditioner works well, and works at the power level advertised for the lowest-ac setting. It has 2 ac blower levels, low and hight. I have a way of measuring output, and the lowest blower setting with the AC on used roughly 825watts per hour. The highest setting uses much more, at approximately 1.15kw, maxing out at 1.23kw. I tested this in an RV with an isolated power station where I could measure energy usage, so I’m confident in those numbers. I also tested it in the very worst conditions - it was a dry 105 degrees in the full sun, so my RV was probably around 115 degrees when we started. In 3 hours it got the temp down to 91, which was impressive, given the really severe heat, combined with the reheating of the shell of the camper that never went into any shade.
As far as performance, I noticed a couple of things - not the biggest deal, but worth noting: First, the unit will only tell the current temp if it’s in dehumidifying mode. When in AC mode, it only shows the set temp. Also the vents on this unit are kind of basic - you manually point them to where you want the air, and only about 2/3rds of the mouth is actually pumping out air. This thing is SUPER heavy, and seems heavier than you’d expect.
I do think it’s pretty good on noise for as hard as it works. The hose that came with it is very long, plenty for my needs, and the window vent adapter is convenient. I like that you can use the water tray for humidity collection, or use the hose. I would recommend getting an insulator for the hot air hose, since that does get hot.
I didn’t get to confirm what happens when it gets down to the set temp - may have to update this if it doesn’t perform well. I haven’t had that happen yet - no fault of the machine’s though, either I’m in a severe heat situation and cooling down, or more likely than not I can go jump in a lake instead of staying inside, ha.
I’m happy with this machine. It seems like it’s going to work great for my needs and the extras are nice too.
