The battery is what truly makes this unit special, as you can get around 5 hours of ac life without a cord! The unit can still be powered with your standard electrical home outlet, or a portable power station. We did most of the testing with the external battery and this performed well in our test and transporting this unit all over the place. On the 90 degree day we got into the low 60’s with the AC coming out of the unit for almost a 30 degree difference between the ac and the ambient temperature. It got to its optimal temperature in the 10 minutes that was noted by the company. You will watch this number go down fast! Even in 90+ F heat this Zero Breeze started cooling with no issue. After you cut the machine on it will flash the temperature of the air that is currently coming out of the unit in its digital temperature display. Now here is what you’ve all been waiting for, how cool is this machine? First, it is good to note that you do NOT need any water, ice or Freon to run the machine. The bad part, at least with my unit, is that the remote control was spotty with working to give the unit commands. On the surface this is a great idea if you’re in your sleeping bag and want to change the temperature. I’d like to see them have an easy attach like they did with the heat dissipation pipes on the back.įinally, there is a remote control that comes with the unit. These will likely get lost at some point. The issue to me is that you have to attach this with a tool and two screws. This is a great feature to help point the cold air exactly where you want it. This pipe attaches on to the front blower, where the cold air is coming out. This clips on easily above the rear exhaust fans of the unit and you can then vent it out of your tent to keep the cold air in and the warm out out. This Zero Breeze Mark 2 has the ability to vent out the hot air from the machine that can make this the perfect ac unit for camping. I still think it can be tough carrying long distances, but the relative weight and cordless design give this high marks. Overall, I believe this is the most portable ac I have tested. One area of portability that we forget is that this can be a CORDLESS ac unit! That brings higher portability as you don’t have to have an electric source, since there is an attachable battery Adding some textured grip on the handle can help this unit from slipping, falling and causing damages to the unit. This is best carried with one hand and the grip is smooth. Comparing this to other ac related options this is competitive, but if you have to haul this for long distances you may utter some words. With the external battery attached this tips the scales right under 30 pounds. Is It Worth It? Zero Breeze Mark 2 Portabilityįirst, we dive into the portability aspect of the Mark 2.
