Override temperture setting on Amcor Amc-12000e portable Air Conditioner
Is there any way to override the temperature settings on this device so that cooling is permanently on? Even in manual mode, the compressor does not switch on if the ambient temp is below the set temp (which has a min setting of 18). I would like to be able to use the device to dehumidify in winter and air conditioner in the summer. Happy to open/modify device.

Actually there is no way to do what you want because the unit is designed to operate when the inside temperature allows the heat exchanger to function so that it will condense the liquid refrigerant into a gas.
As far as using it in the winter to dehumidify this same applies. If it is to cold then the gas won't be able to condense back into a liquid. If I were you I would buy a portable dehumidifier but remember that if the temperature is to low it won't work.
Good luck
