Do you have black out curtains? I swapped out my light filtering cellular blinds for black out blinds and while it's still hot upstairs, there was a noticeable difference of the temperatures in the home vs outside by a few degrees. (2-3 degrees range vs 5-6 without).
I also wonder if you could try and hack together a swamp cooler set up to extend the effectiveness of your portable unit.
I'm shopping AC quotes with a friend right now. I won't run it all day, but it would be nice to get the internal house temp below 25C before like 3-5AM (some rooms hotter by a few C). This year alone has been especially bad for temps over 20C at night and also nights with absolutely no breeze.
