Spent a summer in a small camper van and underestimated how brutal heat management would be. Went through a thorough guide on [AC for small RV](https://pureluxy.com/ac-for-small-rv/) options after that experience. **Types covered and tradeoffs:** - Rooftop AC units — most effective but require 110V shore power - 12V compressor coolers — work off the battery, best for boondocking - Swamp coolers — cheap to run but only work in low-humidity climates - Mini split installation — complex but excellent if you're stationary often - Portable AC with window vent kit — flexible but draws significant power The article includes power consumption charts which is critical if you're running off solar. RV/van life folks — what cooling setup are you running?

Here is our seventeen feet and two inch Sportsman Classic by KZ rv’s. We named her Twanda. Here is a blog post about her including lots of photos, and a couple of videos if you’re so inclined.
