electriQ - electriQ Compact 9000 BTU Portable Air Conditioner

I bought an Electriq compact one about 3 years ago from airconditect and sits by my desk. I see it's £280 now, I bought it during a heatwave and was closer to £350, but it's been a few years of getting a lot of use and no issues. It does work but you need a nearby window, I purchased a window kit that zips around the hose. If I was buying today I'd go for a bigger one I think and get the highest BTU, just because. If you don't exhaust it correctly (the hose fell out one day) it will make the room considerably warmer.

I got one a few years ago, it's still going strong. Cools a bedroom from 25C to 20C in about 20 minutes. Nice thing about this one is you don't have to empty it. It's a little bit quieter than a hoover. [https://www.electriq.co.uk/p/compact/electriq-compact-air-conditioner](https://www.electriq.co.uk/p/compact/electriq-compact-air-conditioner)

I've got a cheap electriq brand one from appliances direct. It says its rated at 9000btu but I think thats a load of bollocks...... I am however sat in my living room feeling quite comfortable right now....not cool, but comfortable. There's a TV and two fans on in the house and smart meter says 28-30p per hour is my current rate. So it's not cheap but not expensive enough to bother me.
