How does the Zero Breeze Mark 2 really hold up after 2 years on a boat in Japan’s heat and humidity? I’ve been using mine on my sailboat Wahine as a portable air conditioner during typhoon prep and writing retreats. I’m not a tech guy, so setup took some getting used to—but I’m mostly pleased. Here’s my honest take: - Battery lasts 5–7 hours - Power draw: 150–240 watts I had battery issues early on, but the company replaced it. I give it a 7.5–8/10 I really like the design and portability, the battery slides neatly under the unit, which you can see in the video. But I suspect that’s what caused my first battery to fail. Condensation from the AC may have dripped down into the battery unit. And that battery? It costs nearly as much as the AC itself. It’s been essential for me as a writer, especially during Japan’s humid summers. I usually cool just one berth so I have a space to work and sleep comfortably, protected from the worst of the heat and moisture. No, they haven’t paid me to say any of this. I just know how useful honest reviews can be for off-grid or boat life folks. #boatlife #portableairconditioner #writerslife
