I haven't read it yet. Left it open to read later when it warms up outside.

Back before I was banned from the Caravanner forum, there was a whole thread about how someone installed a unit in their caravan, I thought it was on this forum as well but I can't find it now. If you do a Google search you will find there are a lot on manufacturers offering them now as an alternative to the wall mounted head unit. Far more practical in an RV, less weight on the roof and a lot more cooling power, yet the outside unit uses a fraction of the power the newest inverter Harrier uses.

Peter, could the 50% battery use with the old air con been around the same time as the problem with the solar fuse? Now the solar is working again properly it would be powering the air con along with the battery and topping the battery up when the air con cycled out for a while.
The 5'er we did for John Lange ran the 3.5kW dual head split system air con continuous for 3 days while we were testing it parked up beside the workshop and the battery still returned to 100% before the end of the day, so split system air con uses a lot less battery power than the new Harrier

I was part of that discussion in 2016. Its on here as well as caravaners. We went with the harrier because of ease of install. I dont regret it..
