Remember though...  Every air conditioner has to be exhausted to the outside.

Do they shut off after a certain time or can they turn on and off again at regular intervals?

For an air conditioner to work, it has to be exhausted to the outside in some fashion.  Simple thermodynamics, yo!

You set the temp, and it'll cycle, just like your fridge...

I'm one of those people that doesn't like air blowing on me when I'm sleeping...

Berry, any portable air conditioner needs a hose routed out a window.

Yeah I know...btu I just remember talking to someone about this and they were telling me about this mini air conditioner that didn't have to be exhausted...I dunno...but if something like that does exists, I'd love to buy one!

Maybe the product Berry Sweet is referring to is not an actual air conditioner?



It produces cool air, but may technically not be an air conditioner?

Yes, could be!

It is impossible for an air conditioner to cool a room, without somehow exhausting the hot air.  Simple thermodynamics...



Hot air is "soaked up" and goes where?  Back into the room?  It MUST have an exhaust to the outside.

My parents have a fan that you can load up with cold water or ice cubes, and it blows that around.  May work well enough for some, and much cheaper than an air conditioner...
