    I have a Rigmaster but they are out of buisness. Some are still out their but I wouldn't buy one of them. I would go for a Thermo King because they are quieter then most and do a good job from what I hear and the dealer network is bigger then any others.

    Only draw back to the nite system is they are barely good for 10 hrs, and only keep the truck comfortable between 80 or 85 degrees and 35 degrees.
    Hardly useful on a 34 hr reset where you can't get a motel.


    At 35 degrees I don't idle the truck at night any way.

    I'll stick with a diesel APU.
