Summer Outdoor Heat Relief Record, I Finally "Make Peace" with High Temperature

                               Notes on cooling off outdoors in summer, I finally made peace with the high temperature

If you've ever endured a summer night in a tent like a sauna, you know exactly how I feel. Last July, my friends and I went camping in the mountains. The sweat-soaked days were bad enough, but the nights were even worse. The tent was stifling and sticky, making it impossible to sleep. We took turns fanning ourselves until 2 a.m., and when we finally couldn't take it anymore, we just sat by the tent entrance waiting for dawn. That's when I swore I'd never suffer like this again.

This spring, while browsing a camping blogger's video, I stumbled upon a portable outdoor air conditioner. Honestly, I was skeptical at first, but I couldn't stand the heat anymore, so I decided to give it a try. And guess what? It completely transformed my summer outdoor adventures — though, of course, this was only possible thanks to a charger I later discovered.

Camping is finally getting comfortable (really!)
The first time I used this air conditioner was on a weekend camping trip. It is much smaller than I imagined and can be placed firmly in the corner of the tent without taking up any space. That afternoon, the temperature in the tent soared to 35 degrees Celsius—the kind of heat that makes you start sweating as soon as you sit down. I plugged it in, and within a few minutes, the breathless sticky feeling in the air slowly dissipated. I took a thermometer and found that it had dropped to 28°C. I could finally lean on the mat comfortably and chat without having to wipe off sweat frequently.




What's even more surprising is its sound: unlike the obvious roar of the air conditioner at home, it only makes a gentle hum, which sounds like white noise at night and helps me fall asleep faster. However, when I first used it, I did encounter a problem — its built-in charger charges too slowly. Last time I forgot to charge it in advance before camping, and the battery was only half full before I set off. I was so anxious that I almost wanted to give up taking it. It was also at that time that I saw someone recommend the lilon charger on an outdoor gear forum. I bought one with a try-it-out attitude, and unexpectedly, it directly solved my "battery life anxiety".
Outdoor Camping， This Charger Turns Out to Be a Power Rescue
A few weeks later, I drove to the beach with my family, and the combination of this air conditioner and lilon charger completely changed my impression of road trips. We stopped at a rest stop for an hour and when we got back the car was as hot as an oven - the steering wheel was too hot to touch and the seats popped up as soon as you sat in them. In the past, when encountering this kind of situation, we could only turn on the car air conditioner to the maximum, and the whole family stood in the sun and waited for more than ten minutes, sweating profusely, hoping to cool down. But this time, I took out the portable air conditioner from the trunk and plugged it into the outlet at the rest stop while using a lilon charger to recharge the air conditioner’s backup battery.
Ten minutes later, when we opened the car door, a refreshing breeze blew straight onto our faces, and the seats were no longer hot. Even better, by the time we got ready to leave, the spare battery was already charged to nearly 80%. Later, we found out that Lilon chargers are significantly faster than the original ones—during a quick breakfast, they could charge enough for half a day's use.

What surprised me even more was its “versatility”. Last month I went camping in a remote mountainous area and there was no place to connect to the mains electricity. I brought a solar panel and first recharged the supporting energy storage power supply, and then used this 500W charger to supplement the power supply. This combination can stably support the power consumption of the outdoor mobile air conditioner. That day I accidentally adjusted the angle of the solar panel to a crooked angle, and the charging efficiency dropped a lot. Fortunately, the indicator light on the charger reminded me in time, and I quickly adjusted it back without delaying the use of the air conditioner at night.

Now every summer when I venture outdoors, my portable AC and Lilon charger have become my go-to 'cooling companions'. I used to dread summer excursions, but now I can peacefully enjoy mountain breezes and seaside sunsets without battling the heat—this 'refreshing freedom' is probably the very joy of outdoor life.
