A 12V rooftop air conditioner for camper vans, panel vans and light trucks, built to run off the vehicle's own battery bank while parked or on the move.
Why This Product
The RTX 2000 packs a variable-speed inverter compressor and its cooling electronics into a single roof-mounted unit, so there's no separate box to fit inside the vehicle. Auto, Eco, Boost and Manual modes let you balance cooling power against battery draw, and it's designed to drop into an existing roof hatch opening rather than needing a new cut. It's a cooling-only unit — there is no heating mode.
Key Features
- Up to 1700W cooling capacity (rated to ISO 5151) from a variable-speed inverter compressor
- Draws roughly 10-30A at 12V depending on the mode selected
- Auto, Eco, Boost and Manual operating modes, adjustable via remote control or the integrated panel
- Fits into an existing roof hatch opening (a separate installation kit is required)
- Rated noise level under 70 dB(A)
- Sealed R134a refrigerant system rated for ambient temperatures from 5°C to 52°C
Ideal For
- Camper van and panel van conversions needing off-grid cooling
- 4x4 and canopy campers with a roof hatch opening already in place
- Light trucks needing parking/rest-stop cooling
- Anyone upgrading from a fan-only roof vent to real air conditioning

Optional Fitment / Upgrade Notes
This unit is designed to fit into an existing roof hatch opening rather than requiring a fresh cut, but a separate installation kit is needed to complete the fit and wiring. Roof loading, hatch dimensions and 12V electrical capacity all vary by vehicle, so confirm compatibility before ordering.

FAQ
Will this drain my vehicle battery quickly?
Power draw depends on the mode used — Eco mode uses less current than Boost. Confirm your battery bank and charging setup can support the roughly 10-30A draw before relying on it off-grid.
Does it need a new hole cut in my roof?
No — it's designed to install into an existing roof hatch opening. A separate installation kit is required to complete the fit.
Does it have a heating mode?
No, this is a cooling-only unit.
