Isn't it true that, at the same high temperature, a damp ambient feels hotter than a dry one? Maybe they are pointing to this...

From the perspective of the warm-blooded mammal, it will *feel* cooler, but we typically associate air conditioning with changing the temperature of the air, which a humidifier doesn't do. I'd agree that the headline could be written more clearly though

Yes but A) that's subjective and B) the dehumidifier is going to generate *more heat* as it dries the air.

The main reason I made my video is that when using a dehumidifier like this, it's actually a band-aid for some other problem like an improperly-sized air conditioner. Their purpose is not comfort. It is true they they can help, but only in some situations, and that nuance is important.

Query, in continuing the heat pump saga, do you plan to cover these portable and RV refrigerators with the 12/24v Danfoss/Secop style inverter driven compressor? The included image isn't mine, I found it on Facebook marketplace. The way my 75L is powered on batteries it can only use <400 Wh per day.
