All that time, money spent, and lives lost in Afghanistan, and we can't have working a/c.

window unit instalation will work fine if u pay attention to all the variables. first thing is u will need more than a 6000btu go with a 8000 minimum and mount it high as possible. most come with remotes but most important is to mount at a fairly steep angle. window units gain efficency when level so the drained condensation helps cool the coils. while on your 10 or 34 everything will be fine as long as u park with the right angle,nose up or level but not nose down. window units will work going down the road but when u go down a steep grade water may come bac into the wall. as far as power goes 2000 watts is more than enough. currently im running 10000btu and while it works on my 2000 watt inverter i run it off a generator. a gallon of gas all night verses diesel is a no brainer. an apu is more conservative than idling but not as cheap as a little gas. remember if u carry gas ur only allowed 8 gallons total. forget about a 300 watt fuse as all breaker are on the cord for the a/c, use it and u wont have to worry about sizing and the unit will always be protected.

I can confirm this system works. I had a firman generator from Costco. 0.9 gallon lasts for six to seven hours. https://youtu.be/RO3C9HtIl_Y?si=OJceV5KXzhS3cpvC
