ZERO BREEZE Mark 2 AC

I started researching an AC unit because I'm a truck driver and the eco-AC in my company truck will only cool my truck to about 80 degrees if it's over 100 outside and my schedule usually has me trying to sleep during the day. After looking at probably a dozen different options and models, I came across Zero Breeze. What really stood out to me is that it seemed to be heavily marketed towards the "van living" lifestyle. Van living isn't exactly like truck driving life, but it's a pretty close cousin in terms of small space, low power consumption and the need to be fuel conscious. After scouring all the specs I was happy to find that it has extremely low wattage requirements (I think it said 250W but don't quote me, lol) I knew this was the product that was most likely to solve my AC issues, if it performed the way they said, haha (it totally surpassed expectations, btw) The biggest hurdle regarding purchasing was the price tag, but I was able to afford it fairly quickly with the help of Klarna. I've been at work for a week since I picked this up from the house and there's been some creative strategizing involved to get it situated in a streamlined way in the small space of my truck. The biggest trick has been the exhaust hoses. The windows in my truck are shaped funky so I've been trying various solutions to close up the gaps when I have the window down about 4-5 inches to let the hoses poke out. It's been a process, but its definitely worth every penny and all my creative brainstorming. Yesterday I went to sleep about 10am and turned the Zero Breeze on about 30 minutes beforehand. When I got up at 5pm my thermostat said it was a lovely 65 in my truck. I turned on my ignition key to see the outside temp reading and it said it was 104. Before I had this AC if it had been 104 outside, it would have been 85 inside and I'd have woken up in a puddle of sweat and feeling icky and borderline flu-ish. This is an absolute game-changer for me and I've been recommending it on various trucker groups whenever someone brings up the need for a better AC in their truck. 5 stars all the way.

The Zerobreeze 2 has been a game changer for me, I am travelling and camping a lot, its given me the ability to sleep well at night in the most comfy way.

I use it as a direct body cooler and it keeps my core body temp down nicely, I also use my own deep cycle batteries and this thing runs like a gem.

Traveling this summer has been made easy with the ZERO BREEZE. No hot nights, just restful nights of sleep. Thank you!

This time not a van but a kind of sailing van.....
Testing the Zerobreeze on a sailing boat. Useful: connecting the hoses on the air outputs of the boat. I love it.

The Zero Breeze Mark 2 let my son and I bring our two cats with for a mini-vacation and college tour in Colorado. You can see the tubes for the Zero Breeze in the bottom plastic drawer. We were able to spend the morning and afternoon in very hot weather knowing the cats were in an air conditioned van in a parking garage. We checked on them a few hours in and the temperature was great. We kicked it up for us to walk around campus a bit more and my son thought it was a little cold when we got back.

Due to my work schedule, I didn't get to travel anywhere besides a shady spot in the parking lot where I got to take a nice cool nap every afternoon in the privacy of my own pickup. ZeroBreeze 2 on a battery with the extension dock so my battery is always nice and juiced up by my Jackery.
Actually, I forgot that I was able to go white water rafting at New River Gorge very early summer in West Virginia. ZeroBreeze was in my tent and I would stick the exhaust vents out the side of the tent by the ladder. I was able to keep the temperature even colder than at home (because my wife can't stand the cold). It was an awesome experience made better knowing I'd sleep way more comfortably than the other guys

I love my zero breeze Mark ll. Took my grandkids camping in the teardrop I built in SC 100 degree heat. It cooled my camper beautifully at night!!! I used a heavy duty bike lock to attach it to the underside of my camper so no one could steal it

I use my Zero Breeze Mark2 to keep my orchids cold at night.
Yes, you heard that right. Most people think of the hot tropics when they hear the word "orchid", but there are thousands of high-elevation species, that need cold nights in the 50's F (10's C), or below, in order to survive, but most importantly, to produce flower buds. Most of these species are miniature species. The plants are only a few inches tall and the flowers may be only 2-3 mm long.
Before I found the Zero Breeze, I relied on my home A/C to bring the temp down at night, but that was difficult during the hot nights of late summer in Atlanta. It was stressful for me and tough on my electric bill. I got my Mark2 05/05/22 and that very first night the temp dropped to 52F (11C). Even through the hottest nights of summer, the night temps never got above 55F (13C). It will soon be one-year, and it is still going strong, running every night for 11-hours continuously.
Why do I put so much effort into these plants? First, if they are grown correctly, they bloom continously all year long, covered with lots of tiny brightly-colored flowers. Second, several of the plants in my collection are new species. They don't even have names yet, and a few may be the only plant of that species in existence. If one plant dies, the entire species might be lost forever.

The build quality of the unit wasn't what I was expecting at this price point. The unit could use thermostatic control as well. The front vent hose doesn't clip on like the rear vents - that's pretty dumb. You have to screw it on. I've had trouble with the unit leaking water into my sleeping area - even though I've ensured the proper pitch angle. I will likely fabricate a pan for the unit with another drain hose.

It cool well in a truck bed with camper top - as long as the truck is in the shade. I can keep the interior of the camper at 75 degrees on a 95 degree day.

Working great in Minnesota! Had to turn it off last night, but it cooled us down and reduced humidity perfectly.

Bayliner 2665. We got the cabin nice and cool. 54f air coming out of the blower and it’s almost 80f outside.

I've used this on 2 camping trips in the hot summer of Texas. My first weekend with it I had an issue with it holding water and leaking inside my tent. I did have it at the proper angle and contacted Zero breeze support via email, and after 10 days I still have not heard back from support.
I went on a second camping trip and put a plastic lid from one of my camping containers under it, and lifted the front with a small 2x4 and a small 1 x 4 in the rear, and that seemed to do the trick and the condensation drained properly all night. So I did my own troubleshooting and may have resolved the issue. I'm not happy that I have heard nothing back from their support team.
As for the Zero Breeze II, you have to understand your environment, the tent is not well insulated, and the heat and humidity in Texas in the summer is brutal. BUT once the sun started going down and my tent was set up in the shade, the unit did keep my tent cool enough to sleep very comfortably through the night. I was at 2 different state parks on both trips and had electrical hookups and did have it running all night on rocket mode with 110V hookup. I have not tested the use of it on the battery pack.
I do not like the way you have to screw on the electrical jack or the jumper between the battery and the unit. You almost have to have tiny baby fingers to screw this on, and the fact that you have a 6 inch jumper that you have to keep track of????. Unbelievable that when you snap the unit to the battery pack it doesn't have contacts like every single battery operated tool out there on the market today. Maybe on the Mark III???
The unit does blow cold, but because of the no reply from the troubleshooting team and the jumper you can easily lose I can only give it a 4 star review.

Just upgraded my camping game for my ZeroBreeze Mark 2 air conditioner and diesel heater! And the best part? I installed 2 4.5” ports to connect them without having to go through the zipper windows on my tent.

Day one of using my ZERO BREEZE AC, I was very surprised how nice and cool the van got. It was 85 degrees and humid outside. Within an hour and a half of running the ZERO BREEZE the van 🚐 was in the 70s and significantly less humid. Comfortable enough to sleep in. Pictures are of the Installation.
Happy Camper!

Works perfect for me. It keeps me chill in my van when it’s warm.

I researched the Mark 2 for awhile before buying and so far I'm impressed.

I built a quick prototype window insert for the vents using 2 - 4 inch dryer vent quick connectors, foam board insulation, pipe insulation, and lots of HVAC tape. Also, I used an empty 1 gallon water jug for the condensation and put it in the passenger side footwell. The battery and Zerobreeze fit perfectly between the front seats and I used a dowel in cupholder to prop it up.

I just took it out for a 2 day test and it did very well. A few leaks in the prototype window insert that were fixed easily. Otherwise the Zerobreeze is awesome. Looking forward to camping this summer!

The Zero Breeze Mark 2 AC does a great job of cooling the car when you're camping! If you can crack a window, you can keep the whole car cool!

I use my Mark 2 AC in my car with the air intake and exhaust pointed out the sunroof, with the unit itself sitting between the front seats. Blowing cool air backwards into the rear seats, it's a great breeze for sleeping! It runs quietly and does a great job of cooling the space, bringing fresh air in from outside and keeping hot air away.

Since the Mark 2 battery lasts 5 hours on night mode while cooling, I can run it to fall asleep and for most of the night. When I'm awake and up and about during the day, the battery charges from the 12V plug in my car or from a 240V wall plug if I'm near one. And then I can keep cool the very next day or night!
