If you like nerding out on details ...

Here's the control boxes, yay more LED's to cover at night. But see below, this might be just the PP model, or an early idea

 

Here's the Ecoflow. That spot is blank on mine, unfortunately I lose cabinet space for no useful purpose

The battery looks like a standard ecoflow bolted in there, with all the electronics and casing. No space to do a side by side like with the Lithionics. 5 kWh base, I have about 9 kWh with the Lithionics upgrade (which cost $$). Jason says it can be supplemented, maybe he means the Ecoflow daisy chaining feature with an external battery

 

They dropped the vents. Those Ecoflows have built in active cooling and fans, maybe they figure that's good enough? Still need to dump heat somehow

 

Different picture on the websidte compared to the Austin demo model. Two control panels and not one on the side pantry wall. Bottom is the tanks, the top looks like the Truma with the control knob. Probably something similar.

OTT needs to get with it! Brinkley installs the Furrion Chill Cube. 😎

advertised as 'up to 9 dB quieter'.

That’s 9 less than 3 feet from a freight train! 🤣

Both the Chill Cube and the Fresh Jet are quieter than our old Penguin.  Do we know which is the quietest?   The choices for AC replacement are growing!

When first fired up, the Chill Cube in med-high fan makes about 30% of the noise of the Dometic P2. Once the cabin cools and it's variable speed compressor and fans gear down, its whisper quiet sound must be <5% of the awful P2!

It's by far the quietest A/C unit I've ever heard. Wonderful easy sound for an afternoon nap in the Oliver! 😎 

And for us, power requirements are very important, so to run our A/C on battery/inverter.

FWIW I’m a noise freak, super sensitive to noise. The Truma Aventa is supposed to be among or the quietest on the market according to AI. At first I was disappointed hearing how noisy it is but I forgot that ACs need to break in. Used it yesterday, it’s really  good! I can sleep with this. 

Don’t know why they’re switching from Truma, it’s a good combination

I’ll guess because it’s a high profile unit? They’re coming out with a lower rated low profile one but it’s not here yet. Seems like Oliver likes low profile
