    I have this tent and used it twice. Love the aluminum poles and easy setup. My issue is with where they attach the halo pole the small straps they used are attached to the seam where the fabric meets the mesh. After 2 uses a small hole is tearing in the mesh. Be aware. This is my second marmot tent and the first one lasted 3 years with about 10 uses per year at most.

    Like you said and it's a VERY strong point... Who needs a $130.00 water bottle? I don't think the mosquitos or finches give a dang... I do like the idea of involving a magnet catch for the water hose though!! ...Any idea what those two Velcro end pieces are for on the two straps?

    Why use an expensive extra groundsheet which adds more weight? Instead of a thicker floor fabric? And also the shorter poles cause more tension on the couplings , makes them wider and oval and bended. I sold my bikepacking Hubba . Took a regular Hubba again. Most solid is the Elixer . These Hubba tents are like cellophane combined mosquito net shelters

I got my mind between 8000 and 10000 btu. Trying to push enough for AC , refrigerator and a few extra appliances. ..Every bit of information helps.

    Remember the air behind a wheel does strange things when travelling. It swirls around, you can see the mess on the paint behind a wheel. That's why we use tire flaps. May need a slider in addition to the screen to keep water from potentially being forced in under highway pressure while you're travelling through rain, puddles etc. Also, don't park nose down; the condensate will flow out the front into the interior. Best to affix a hose if tray provides a drip hole to do so. I'd be concerned some water would splash out of the unit into your van. Keep in mind the tray is designed to hold water which the fan literally flings onto the fins for an additional cooling effect. Air cons may provide hole for a tube. It may be up half an inch or so in order to to both hold water for the cooling splashing effect, but also to drain the tray if it gets too high. It may be worth perpetually draining this water and losing the slight efficiency gain. Or fitting in a drain cock on the lowest part of the tray, and operated manually when you are ready to move. Becausewhen you move, if there is still water in the tray, it will slosh around and maybe into the compartment. Perhaps you could waterproof the lower part of the enclosure, and fit a permanent drain hole, or just let it drain out the lower air vent. Also, maybe a larger more expensive capacitor? That one looks suspiciously affordable, kudos thrifty shopper! But I've noticed RV capacitor/soft-start devices can cost up to $800, so maybe here you get whatchu pay for. Otherwise a workaround would be to manually turn on a high amp load for 5 seconds to trigger the generator into ramping up to full output. A small 500w heater, hairdryer, hotplate. If it allows the aircon's 50w fan to run for two minutes, then maybe it will stay ramped up for when the 450w compressor kicks in in two minutes. 450w +/- compressor when running, with amp starting spike. This is when the capacitor really does its work. I guess the aircon does a test when it starts up to see if there are enough amps for when the compressor will start in two minutes. The fan by itself should otherwise be ramping up the the gen. The only other way I can see is to mess with the circuitry. Or try a more expensive capacitor system. Who knows, there may be one which already addresses your eco mode issue. It's possible he could start the aircon in fan mode, which may not test for high amps, but will still trigger the eco into full mode. Then he could change setting from fan to cool.

    Have you tried it for multi day trip ? Since the video has been up for 5 months, and it's still winter now, i imagine you didn't got the chance.. I'm really curious about the ice retention, they say it can do 12 to 48h which isn't exacly that great. Maybe with some Cooler Shock packs at the bottom, some ice blocks instead of only crushed/cubed ice and prechilling it in a huge freezer a day before, we could get 72-96h. My current setup is to strap a yeti roadie 24 to the back of a Pelican Mission 100 which has just enough space.. Looks stupid but it works !

    In 2019 the first item I installed was my 5k btu AC. I live in my camper permanently and move around following the weather. I am back for a couple of months in dry dock to improve my solar and the AC. LOVED the info on the soft start cap. I was wondering if that was possible. I also have eco mode on the AC and it worls great. I use a Champion 2000w generator and that also works fine on eco. I have a TCL unit from Walmart. My only criticism is mounting the unit on the floor. That is generally a bad idea for a couple of reasons.
