I looked on the web and I can see that Coleman makes up to a 27KBTU
12/120v rooftop AC for rv's but I couldn't find a source. Any
suggestions?



Somewhere near you is a motorhome/travel trailer superstore. They all have
them. Google search for "Coleman RV air conditioner" and find thousands.

I do find thousands of 110v AC's, but no 12 or 24v AC's.

Do you realize how many amps a 6000 btu air conditioner would require at
12 volts? Hey Larry, they don't just take heaters to the boat.

Yeah, but they're not smiling luggin' a 12V AC down the dock.

Hmm....My 8000 window unit in the computer room runs about 800 watts.....

800 watts divided by 14 volts (to be fairer) still equals a CONSTANT DRAIN
of over 57 amps!

Man, we're back trying to figure out where to stow these 3 ton submarine
cells, again, to run it all!....

Nope...A/C is NEVER gonna run off 12V!

"But you sold me a 4,000 watt inverter, didn't you?"......(c;

Hmm... 3 ton submarine cells. Too bad we couldn't
talk the manufacturers into making my 8500 lb keel
into one big lead acid battery ;-)

I do realize how many amps, but I have a DC generator and don't want to
run the thing on an inverter.
