I've read the first 100 threads that came up using search, can't find answer really. Has the "answer" for the best small airco sufficient for a 330 cubic ft truckbed canopy camper been found yet?
I see a ton of threads for mini splits on small RV, but a pickup truck bed canopy camper is another order of magnitude smaller. Has the "best answer" already been found and discussed here? Small window unit? Small minisplit? Rooftop 14"×14" hole RV airco? I feel I've done some due diligence reading and searching, haven't found a "this is the one!" Thread yet for small mobile van-size or less.
Insulated : Tune M1 camper on 6ft Tacoma, fully insulated tent and camper walls. Not reflectix, 5mm duct insulation with double side foil installed w airgap for decent heat rejection. Roof would be covered with airgapped solar panels if doing airco.
Power: whatever the "best" solution is, would engineer shore power/battery/solar/alternator solution then live within energy budget.
Thx!
