Does anyone think this AC will work for boondocking. https://coolsummertips.com/coolgads-1.html?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIor2wnb-L8AIVMapxCh2S8QSNEAEYASAAEgIrhPD_BwE

Only if you’re using a generator - A 2000 watt generator may run it if the AC has a soft start kit... otherwise a 3000 watt is needed. The battery storage and solar panels aren’t quite there yet. If you figure the AC running 25% (optimistic) 1000 watts X 6 hrs = 6000wh per day. Solar panels - 400 watts/panel 3’X 6’ 4 - 6 needed, LiFePO batteries 1200 wh per battery - 4 to 6 needed $5 - $7000.
These are very optimistic estimates... It may be tough to find enough room for the panels, batteries - maybe if you have deep pockets. And I’ve made no provision for other loads. Gotta have a generator!
Get a 7-9000 btu efficient mini split AC... maybe?
