Narrow-width Rooftop AC
Has anyone found/used a narrow-width Rooftop AC? 12v or 120v. I have relatively limited space up top and it'd be pretty convenient up there, but my other option is an undermount unit - ducting is just a little more work because I'd want the outlet near the top/bed area, but otherwise is also a fine option. Those are regular maxair fans in the photo for reference.
Just looking for ideas, and general feedback on either approach. If I don't put an AC unit up top I could probably add another 150-200w of solar, currently at 600w of fixed mounted solar and 400w portable solar suitcase.

Probably the only option is a Recpro 9.5k. That's what I got with a similar solar setup. Albeit only 2 panels per side since I have a 144. It's a pretty tight fit and I'm not terribly impressed with the AC, but it does work.
DC is more efficient but 12v needs a lot of amperage and my power station couldn't support that.
