Shut the fan on your ceiling when using a/c. You want to trap the cold air in the van. No windows open at all. This will help! Good job on the install,.your van looks really nice.

@rosabivins2558 9 дней назад

Hello I just want to say make all your windows dark where no sunlight can come through to make cooler ok safe and cool peace and blessings to you ❤

@sandybeebee6511 9 дней назад

Your definitely gonna have to do an update on this cause I was researching for ac for a van but you got to have a better way to power it cause I'm only using a power station too and from what I saw it only last a couple hours before it's drained

@rollerhopgirl 9 дней назад

so glad you got an a/c unit. TX heat is no joke.

@allenhaynes2662 9 дней назад

If you get an insulated exhaust hose , it will cool your van down faster and to a lower temperature . There is a lot of heat that radiates from that hose, which makes the ac work harder

@catherinegrace2366 7 дней назад

Dang that’s brilliant and you’re right.

@dylanducote2803 9 дней назад

I have one of those, they work great!! Cool off my bedroom perfectly. Also make sure you have a bucket or something to catch water from that skinny hose, sometimes water will drain. I learned the hard way.

@joyceh3976 8 дней назад

ooops i just wrote that to her, for sure she will need something to catch the water drip.

@TheDonyouth 9 дней назад

I think you might still need to get van properly insulated thou, One Love!

AAAAYYYEEEEE !!!!!! New ac who dis. I'm so happy that you can be cool and comfortable through this hot summer

@anotherm2722 8 дней назад

Very "cool"! Do yourself a favor and buy a hepa hvac filter at home depot etc and pre-filter the air intake. Your unit will stay much cleaner, more efficient and last longer. The filters that come with those allow too many dust particles in over time. Happy trails:)

@buttafly591 9 дней назад

Gurl you are not playing. You got the biggon for your van. It should be like an ice box in there now.

@BethBoundVanVentures 9 дней назад

That's a nice Ac. I'm so glad you had another battery to handle the load. It is very hot out there. Just found your channel and subscribed

@bosshogg252world8 8 дней назад

I think you need to make some installation window covers that fit in your windows the front windows, the back windows but also when you got your AC running, you don’t want your max fan open because it’s letting out the AC. You have been ventilation going outside so through the hose just a little useful in order for your AC to work the most effective

@point1392 9 дней назад

You go girlfriend‼️I'm happy for you. Heat's no joke. I'm in AZ the desert area. It was 110° today & it's been like this for wks. I hope you have a solar panel on top of your vehicle because it's going to take quite a bit of energy to run your AC. Enjoy it‼️😀

@lucyjay7963 8 дней назад

@carmenrivera2663 9 дней назад

Turn it down to 62 or whatever the lowest number is so the temp can get more cooler🙂

@bambihargrove6499 8 дней назад

I've got one in my van too, I wrapped reflex around the exhaust hose, and then a pretty lap blanket with bungie cord to hold. ❤😊

@HalifaxComputersRepair 5 дней назад

how do you sleep there when its so loud running....you should get your self a Nomadic Cooling - X2 Air Conditioner - 12-Volt and its goes above your head with less noise ....and easier on the batteries ., might be little pricey but worth long run :)

@joyceh3976 8 дней назад

Young lady you have to have a drain hose because it will start dripping on your floor, I have one in my bedroom and put a tall bucket to catch the dripping water that comes out.

@byronmorris1594 9 дней назад

If you learn how to use the energy, you can use a Breeze 2 and run it off a power bank for 24 hours. I tried it, and it works.

@lionandthelamb9379 3 дня назад

I'm going to get one of these for my van. I saw that another vanlifer replaced the white exhaust hose it came with to a silver insulated one from home depot. He showed it cooled better. He showed that the white vent hose temp was 110 degrees that was radiating back in the van. The other vent was much cooler. How much power consumption and what size battery are you using?

@exoticbeautyblisssimpson8430 4 дня назад

Close everything up so the air conditioner can cool it down within 5 minutes. Don’t open ceiling fan sis.

@lauraslanesvanlifetravels 9 дней назад

I keep thinking about getting one of these but I just don't know if I could figure it out and I would def need a bigger battery. I also wonder how it would work with my windows? Also, what kind of battery do I need? And how much power did it use from the battery overnight? I don't want any cracks letting bugs or any other critters in while sleeping or just hanging out during the day...got any advice about it? Please share if you do...thanks!

@Opsenforcer 9 дней назад

Curious how long could it run for on that power station?

@ThatGirlLib 9 дней назад

I’m wondering the same thing because that portable a/c use so much power, but the one’s that are meant for camping are so expensive.

@SullyVanLife 8 дней назад

Adding my two cents. I have a Vtoman 1800 to run a 5,000 btu portable A/C. For me, it’s runs about 2 and change hours. It pulls between 800-900 watts. So, without backups, recharging is always the issue. 🚐😊

@johnbroystonjr23 4 дня назад

I must have missed it but was it revealed which brand/model of unit the AC is? 🤔

@micro-uhgresh-uhnn 7 дней назад

Does it get cooler than the 80s after running a while? How long can it run on your battery?

@Takingajourney_ 5 дней назад

Yes, it does. It can run between 4-6 hours depending on the speed.

@Firephosure 4 дня назад

Sorry but unless she has better setup it's not practical. That AC unit is using ~500w give or take. That Bluetti AC70 only has a 864wh capacity. The power station will be out of juice in 1.5 hrs.

@Takingajourney_ 3 дня назад

I don’t use it with the bluetti as shown in the video.

@jamesyahn 7 дней назад

I am just curious how much power it is taking because if my calculations are correct, it is only going to run for a few hours and then your power station is dead?

@Takingajourney_ 5 дней назад

about 4-6 hours depending on the temp and speed I have it on

@user-uv2dr8gx4z 8 дней назад

I cannot see clearly how you connected the hose to the outside…from the window. How is that vent hose frame connected to the window…is your window partially open? Does your window open from the bottom up? Did u cut a hole in the side of the van?

@Takingajourney_ 5 дней назад

The window open from the bottom
