What is your ideal inside Pod temperature?

Hard to say in the early spring and late fall, we usually use ceramic heaters and let it get a little cooler - we have heavy clothes on anyway since we spend most time outside or in heavy sleeping bags. 

I keep my campers and my home at 69-degrees all year long, whether that means we turn on the AC or Heater, it doesn't matter.  Whatever's required to maintain 69.

5000 btu would probably be the best size, considering it is only about 100 square feet and very well insulated.  I think the problem is the only room to mount an A/C on the pod is on the ceiling, and 11500 btu is the smallest they make them.  I've gone round and round on another thread considering options that would work in about the 5000 btu size.

The tent-end pods probably don't have the humidity issue since they can "breathe", like popups.

I was wondering if the reason for the oversized AC units was to provide sufficient cooling for trailers in exposed places. Places lik AZ, WA, Montana, IA, midwest or centrel US (west of the Alleghenies) and even Midwestern Canada, where tree cover isn't as common as it is here in the east and a camper is very exposed to the sun. The heat load must be intense compared to our common experience with room AC units -where we are cooling one room of a house with usually R30 in the ceiling ( or another room above) and R15 or better in the walls and common walls with other interior rooms, not an isolated box exposed on all sides, including the bottom.
Just a thought...
