If your campsite is powered, almost any air conditioner will do the job. Obviously you would like the most compact unit but it must still be powerful enough. For 150 square feet of tent you will need a unit that is about 5000BTU rated, any less and it will struggle to keep you cool. Remember a tent is not insulated like a home so the unit is going to work harder. If you have a window style unit you will have to put it on a stand (I use a milk crate that I pack gear in on my way to the site). An outdoor power cord that is at least 15amp rated is a minimum, you don’t want it to overheat next to the tent. I have made a sleeve that slips over the unit with an air duct that runs into the tent or you can buy the AC Boot  to simplify the installation.  If all this seems like to much of a problem just get a good quality tent fan.​The Lifesmart indoor/outdoor coolers are almost perfect for camping. It is an evaporative cooler so your tent does not need to be insulated to keep cool, but rather have open ports to keep cool air flowing.

A gallon of water delivers up to 10 hours of run time for the unit and it uses less energy than a 40w light bulb. The 350CFM airflow will keep an area of up to 250sq m cool. rv ac repair mesa azIts stands 21 inches tall and weighs 10 pounds and has an inbuilt carry handle.how many watts does a 5000 btu ac unit use What makes this unit one of our favorites is that it runs on 12v, so if your campsite does not have power you can connect it to a battery to run it (separate extension required).car ac repair ajmanThis unit is probably the best option if your site is not powered, however beware evaporative coolers works best in hot dry climates and less in humid ones.Frigidaire Mini Window Air Conditioner This is an inexpensive, compact, light unit that has been a best seller for ages and is perfect for a tent.

It is a 5000BTU unit, so it is strong enough for most tents and it has a low voltage start-up to conserve power. It is a quiet air conditioner and has a high power efficiency rating and only weighs 35lbs. I really like this unit. It is a powerful portable air conditioner (12 000BTU) designed for spot cooling of data centers or electronic stacks. Its cold air outlet can be easily duct into the tent and it has a timer so that it can switch off automatically in the middle of the night. No stand is required or any modification of the tent or unit. Connect the 71”ducts to the unit, stick it in the tent and switch on. The down side it that the air conditioner is a little heavy, it weighs 68lbs but it is fairly compact. It is not designed for camping but it is doing a good job at it and you will have to try hard for a better alternative.Some campers will pull their face when they see a tent with an air conditioner, but they obviously never camped with one. If you have the space in your car and power is not a problem do you self a favor and try camping with one, you will never go back.

Sign In or Create AccountWe've come a long way from the misting fan. The IcyBreeze looks like a standard cooler you'd pack full of drinks and sandwiches and wheel onto the beach. And it is, but it's also an air conditioner. That's right, an air conditioner. It uses a fan, along with the chilled air inside the cooler, to blow a constant breeze of cool air up to 25 miles per hour at up to 35 degrees below the outside temperature. And it has a rechargeable battery, so you can stay cool whether you're on the beach, camping, or tailgating. Starting at $349, the IcyBreeze definitely isn't priced like your typical drink cooler, and a few issues hold it back, but there's no denying this digital home device is a fun, innovative way to stay cool. Design, Capacity, and Battery For the most part, the IcyBreeze looks like a classic cooler. Available in blue, green, or red plastic, it has a gray lid and handle, and a pair of black wheels. The plastic is of the thick, lightly textured variety, and the cooler has a well-built, premium feel.

There are two cup holder indents on top of the lid, as well as three-stop wheel to control fan speed. Next to that are ports to connect the power adapter as well as an optional corded remote. You'll also find the integrated vent and flexible air hose, which I'll describe more in the next section. The IcyBreeze is a midsize 38-quart cooler. From the outside it measure 18.5 by 23.5 by 16.25 inches (HWD), while the interior measures 11 by 11.25 by 18.5 inches (HWD). To give you an idea of capacity, it can hold up to 30 pounds of ice, or up to 49 cans. It's a bit heavy, with a dry weight of 21 pounds, but the pull-out handle on the side makes it relatively simple to tote around. The base model of the cooler comes with a 110V battery charger. The built-in battery takes up to 5 hours to reach a full charge, after which it can last for up to 6 hours on low, 4 hours on medium, or 2.5 hours on high. When not in use, the battery should last for 30 to 60 days. When plugged in, a light on the charger will turn solid green to let you know you've reached a full charge.

If you want to run the cooler continuously, IcyBreeze offers both wall and car power supplies. They cost around $40 each, though you can get them for less when purchasing as a bundle with the cooler. The priciest pacakge includes a charger, wall power supply, car power supply, extension cord, and corded remote for $425. PerformanceSo how does the IcyBreeze work? It's actually kind of simple. First you have to fill the cooler with two quarts of cold tap water; don't worry, there's a helpful "Minimum Water Level" line marked clearly on the inside of the cooler wall. After that you can add food, beverages, and as much ice as you'd like, as long as you can close the lid of the cooler completely. For testing I filled the cooler up with six trays of ice and 12 bottles of beer. Once you have power, water, and ice, you're ready to begin cooling. When you flip the switch on top of the cooler into one of three fan speeds, chilled water starts circulating through a radiator. The fan draws air through the radiator, chilling it in the process, and the air is then blown out of the vent or through the hose on top of the cooler.

It takes about 20 seconds after turning it on for the cool air to kick in, but once it does, it can get up to 35 degrees cooler than the temperature outside of the cooler. I tested the cooler in the relatively controlled climate of the PC Labs, which tends to hover around 70 degrees. Using an IR thermometer, I was able to measure temperatures as low as 37 degrees blowing though the hose, producing a breeze that felt downright icy. If you're sitting next to the cooler you can feel the breeze by opening the vent on the side. But if you're standing up, or you'd like more direct control over the airflow, you can also pull out the accordion-style air hose and point it wherever you'd like. The hose itself measures 18 inches, so you can't exactly get it right up in your face, but the flow of air is pretty powerful, especially on the high setting. There are a couple of caveats. You can really only cool one person at a time, since the gust of air isn't much wider than the 2.5-inch tube it's pushed out of.
