Has anyone tried to use a secondary AC for camping? Just moved back to Texas. The heat is going to be a problem. I thought about using the small ac unit put out by Aliner. I would have to use a large generator or two smaller ones in series because I want to boondock. Any suggestions or successes? Thanks guys.

I'm still in the planning stage and don't even own a van (yet), but the way I'm leaning right now is powering a 5k to 8k BTU window unit (cheap) with a small Honda Inverter generator.  Alot of the Ford van guys are doing this in the rear door.  I think the NV would require the AC exhaust out the sidewall.

 

2nd choice would be powering a small mini-split AC system using the same type generator.  Pioneer is one brand I've seen fairly cheap on Amazon.

Thanks for the info.It would be nice if we had a longer wheel base to work with like a sprinter or Chevy. More space, more options, but I think we have a better van. The AC issue is always a problem. Thanks again.
