While following this air conditioning thread, it dawned upon me that
there may be AC units designed for boats that will run on 12V DC. I
can't say for sure that this is a fact, but those that are interested
might want to look into it. The boat units do, I am sure, use a tube-
in-a-tube heat exchanger to shed heat into the seawater rather than the
air.
