    Would be tops to have an aircon whilst out and about up the top end. My only query is what are the power consumption requirements for it? I imagine it would be quite hefty?

    Actually pretty good, that's why I got the sparrow. Gives the honda 20 a wake up on start up then on Eco throttle goes back to half revs. Such a small space to cool the aircon is hardly working

    How do the roof toppers go with dampness especially in wet weather, we have had to pack up wet many times, and the tent is always damp when you set up that night, to the extent that we wipe the walls with a towel and wait 30 mins before putting in bedding for it to dry?

    This one has a solar exhaust fan that works well. I packed up in rain plus condensation from aircon. All dry inside at night. Damp out. But no rain can get in. It's awesome.
