Soft Start device for AC units. NOT a capacitor!

[Jim W]

Thank you Joe Romas for the coupon code. I have a Snoozy with a window shaker, it took longer to figure out how to pry the front off of the AC than it did to install the Micro Air soft start. Before the soft start the 2K would still show a flicker of the red overload light when the AC started when NOT in eco mode. Now my Honda 2K easily starts my AC in eco mode and I can hear the volume of the generator tick up a notch when the compressor comes on. Very nifty modification and easy to do. Well worth it.

Your welcome.
What AC does your Snoozy have?

8K BTU Frigidare window shaker. When I opened the case on the AC I found out why it was so hard to start to begin with. NO start capacitor at all. But the soft start unit works really well. Thanks again and sorry for taking so long to get back to this. Didn't catch the message update.

Since people are thinking about AC units again they may want to read this thread, lots of information and testimonials.

Again I have NO connection to Micro Air other than a satisfied customer.

Jim, curious if you went with the 364 in a box, or the 366 board and separate capacitor. Reason being is I am considering a Frigidare 8k upgrade in my egg.

Thanks very much in advance!
