We need a "Like" button like on Facebook. Pretty clever.

Dsadki I like your solution to the ac probem. I have no desire to cut a hole in my Airflyte. How did you attach the dryer vent to the face of the ac unit. Do you have a picture? Thanks, Scott

That's our set up on our Loflyte and it works great!! It's quiet, you don't lose a window, you don't lose much precious space, and its literally 5 minutes to set up at the campsite! I'm out on Hunting Island SC camping and have a terrible internet connection. Sorry no pics but very similar to the setups you are seeing. I have handles on my a/c to pick it up easier and lots of ducktape on the front of the unit for rain. I'm in SC and AL alot and it really works great in our humidity and high temps!!! Just requires two 6" holes for intake and exhaust underneath your front Dinette seat, a couple of vents for intake and exhaust... you are in business!!!!if you need more pics let me know

This idea has my wheels turning...... take the AC unit, build a little frame with handles around it, place next to camper at setup time, connect duct, bingo... Easy peasy.

I love this! My biggest problem is lack of space in my tow vehicle to tote a A/C unit with us. You should see the back of my Jeep each time we go camping. Not to mention any nook and crannie in the back seats. I swear I need a tow vehicle with more cargo room. That would solve the problem (:

That's it winged wonder!! Easy Peasy. I have my feet up on my dinette seat right now because the air is soooo nice and cold. Wish the Internet was better at this campground, I have a bunch of pics of the setup but photobucket isn't cooperating here. I hate to see these a/c units hanging out a perfectly good window. When we pull in to the campground, I hook up the power first and then plunk the a/c unit down on the ground second, hook up the ductwork underneath, plug her in and you are going to have nice cold air when you are done setting up and you're miserable, hot and sweaty!!! ;D

Shastaholic, Yes, it does the job and saves your window or you from putting a hole in the camper to install one.
