Suspect this is one of those things that are heavily dependent upon conditions.

Most days I don't even turn my little BriskAire on, and when I do it has no 
trouble cooling things down to a positively chilly level.  HOWEVER... I have 
a high heat tolerance, I usually avoid places where the ambient exceeds 90, 
I have none of the skylight windows, and my coach is moderate in size.

Contrast this with someone who has a 34' coach with multiple skylights, then 
chooses to take his July-August vacation in an unshaded site in Yuma -- yes, 
even 27,000 BTU may leave that person uncomfortable.
