i had this westinghouse just sitting here. It draws 515 amps on startup and drops to 450 watts after a while. Scouring the web, i dont see anything smaller than it, that uses less power really until now.
Thanks again.

Be careful about how small you go. The Coleman A/C on the roof of most RV's is (supposedly) 13,500BTU but they are horribly inefficient.
At one time, I had a 1998 2720 TrailManor and it had a 10,000BTU (window) A/C unit that was mounted about knee level, in the cabinetry, next to the stove. That's where the factory installed them at that time. Because of the way that the unit was installed, it wasn't very efficient. The TrailManor that I bought didn't have A/C at all so I installed a new 10,000BTU unit in the same place but I redesigned the airflow to the compressor unit so that it circulated better. It worked a lot better then the factory installation. However, trying to get cold air to rise is a challenge and the real failing of that installation location.
