Archer Power Solutions began as a marine electrical and air-conditioning service provider and now designs and handcrafts the Kingfisher line of direct-current marine air conditioners in Maryland. Launched in 2021, the Kingfisher was built by a small team of mechanical, electronic, and software engineers for boaters and off-grid users who need battery-focused cooling without inverters or generators. The company develops its own electronics, firmware, and user interface, testing every unit with a serial-numbered calibration sheet before it leaves the shop.
