It's 30 degrees in my apartment right now O____O

Fortunately my suite never gets direct sunlight. I'm actually surviving sitting here in the living room with a small USB fan on my desk and a larger fan a few feet away.

I had my portable AC in my bedroom on for 5 hours before I went to bed (I usually turn it off when I sleep), and found the temperature starts rising as soon as I turn it off. I am going to try leaving it on for ~8+ hours today before I head to bed and see if the bedroom stays a bit cooler overnight.

I'm also curious about this as well. I don't have central air though, but wondering how much electricity I'm using by keeping the portable AC running... I have a weird nitpicky habit of keeping my electric/hydro bills as low as possible. Turning on the heat in the winter only when it becomes unbearably cold (almost to the point I can see my breath when I breathe lol)
