I was wondering about this too, except do this with a 12V motor to
drive the compressor.

or.....

use standard appropriate sized AC parts from a car/van, then set it
all up somewhere in front of van, and drive the compressor with a 12V
DC motor.

Or is there already an after market solution like this?

Has anyone tried this?

Neil.
