Impressive but one flaw in the experiment. You had no human heat generators in the staterooms. Still given that I'll bet the morning battery reading would have probably been 30%
What of the 360 watts of heating removed from the system? 4 people x 90 watts while sleeping x 8 hours is just shy of 3kWh of heat missing from this "real world" demonstration.
What a useless video. The main questions any viewer would have are :1) how big is the battery bank, 2) type of batteries, 3) the BTU size of the A/C unit, 4) how many amp hours were consumed, 5) the run time, and 6) the per hour consumption of amps. None of these were addressed. Rather we watched screens being tapped endlessly. Pass on this video.
Sorry you found this useless! There are more details about this system in the video that preceded it. 1) 22kWh @ 48VDC 2) Victron Smart Lithium 3) 36K BTU VRV Compressor with 54k BTU of air handler capacity. 4) About 100 AH @48V 5) 8 hours 6) About 10-14 amps @48V average at night
There is no cunning to stretch your cool. No explanation of humidity. No demonstration of how the system is installed. Most boat AC systems throw off their heat through the water. 1500 watts is excessive. If a boat chose a modern camping unit, size and build would be excellent. The AC could work on land. It would be lighter and much easier to install and maintain. Thumbs down.

I most places in the coastal US a sea water heat exchanger would be more than adequate for cabin cooling.
I believe all marine AC units pump sea water on the compressor side.

How big is the battery bank?
22kWh
@@boatrx 458 ah battery bank?
@@JohnBraman413 That's 458AH on a 48v system. That's 1833 ah on a 12V system. You'd need 4000-5000W solar to keep it topped.

@@boatrx can you translate that to a 12V system?
and don't recall anyone asking you to pay to watch the video.... don't be a jerk.
@@Murphy-Kahlen you just multiply by 4.
22kwh is 1833AH in a 12V system
400AH at 12v
400A-560A at 12V average usage at night
Do you use, have a need for, A/C soft starters?
