Anyone use a free standing units to cool your RV? I've thought about it but only with respects a possible temporary solution to a failed roof top unit. Then during our last outing, on a particularly hot day at a park with only 30 amp power, a neighbor showed me his solution. Had one of his roof top units running off the parks 30 amp service and a second free standing unit plugged into the parks pedestals 15 amp outlet. They purchased the unit from Costco for about $500.00. Other than having another large object occupying the limited floor space, it made sense to me. When we were at that park our AC would only bring the temp in the motorhome down to 87º during the hottest part of the day. The outside temp was about 92º so not much cooling.
I saw one today at Costco Business which was on sale for $399.00. If it worked it would be a nice addition while at a park with limited power and I would think a unit our Honda 2000 would run.
Anyone have experience with a portable unit? The ones I've looked at online have had mixed reviews.
