Can a truck camper air conditioner keep you cool in 110 degree heat? I test a budget AC unit powered by solar and the Bluetti Elite 200.
Sleeping in a truck camper during a desert summer presents a massive cooling challenge. This test focuses on whether a budget air conditioner setup can actually lower temperatures inside the rig while running exclusively on rooftop solar and the Bluetti Elite 200 power station. If you are planning an off grid air conditioning project, this real-world experiment shows exactly how much runtime you can expect when the mercury hits triple digits.
I break down the power consumption and temperature drops observed throughout the night. By pushing this truck camper solar setup to its limits, I determine if this specific combination of gear provides enough cooling for comfortable sleep in extreme Las Vegas temperatures. You will see the raw data on how long the power station lasts before needing a recharge.
Exciting News!!! I have partnered with Bluetti to get you guys a 5% discount!
