Hutch Mountain Microair Easystart 364 + Free Install kit - RV Camper air Conditioner Soft Start Easy Start

I'd read a lot of positive feedback about the Micro- Air Easy Start was appealing, but the $300 price tag put me off. Having trouble starting and running my RV A/C unit (13. 5K btu) with the Yamaha 2400ISHC generator, I was forced to consider purchasing a new generator that could deliver more power. A reasonably priced 3000-3500 watt generator would have cost $500 or more. I'd also have to try to sell the Yamaha, which I knew would never be worth even half of what I paid for it. br>br>I took the plunge and bought the Easy Start, which was a breeze to set up. Two wires connect directly to the capacitor, while the other two are spliced into other wires. There is a five-step learning process that must be completed with a power source that you are confident will start the A/C unit. Then came the ultimate test: trying to start the Yamaha generator for the first time. The A/C came on, and the generator never went into overload mode, which was a pleasant surprise. I turned off the air conditioner, waited five minutes, and then turned it back on. br>br>So the Easy Start delivered exactly what it promised, and I'm happy to recommend it.

Hutch Mountain was quick to deliver my unit. I was able to confidently install it on my Coleman air conditioner thanks to the instructions they provided. All of the necessary connections were included in the kit, as well as some unusual connectors. I can now run my air conditioner on my single Yamaha 2000. I'm very happy with Hutch Mountain and the way they designed the unit as well as the directions they provided. One thing to note is that I had to drill a hole for the wiring harness to pass through; however, the kit included a grommet.

The RV technician spent less than 30 minutes installing the unit, and it is performing as expected. There are no negative effects on the AC unit's operation. The technician said cutting a couple of wires to insert the unit would void the warranty, but I went ahead and did it anyway to make sure there would be no problems turning on the AC while using the inverter, even if it was only for a few minutes to keep the heat down in the Florida heat.

There appear to be two competing brands/models, both of which appear to be equally good. I chose it over the Soft Start because it came with a free installation kit (extra connectors, wires, zip ties, and easy locking splicers/connectors) at the time of purchase. br>br>Once I removed the cover from my RV's air conditioner, installation seemed a little daunting. Up on the roof, 12 feet above the ground, working with unfamiliar equipment, I was afraid I'd make a mistake and fall or damage the air conditioner. I didn't have to be concerned. br>br> br>br>Multiple authors' YouTube videos show how to install this on a variety of brands. Air conditioners for RVs come in a variety of sizes. After seeing the first half of the film, I had a dozen of them, and after carefully reading the instructions (twice! ), I was confident it wasn't the tense project I had anticipated. Despite all of the instructions (which cover installing this in a variety of different brands/models/sizes of air conditioners), it comes down to just four connections. That was the most intimidating part, but once I realized there were only four electrical connections to make and I saw everything in my air conditioner that had already been referenced in YouTube videos AND written instructions, it was fairly simple. br>br>It took 30 minutes to complete the installation. With common tools, this task is simple to complete. It certainly helps if you've worked with electrical wiring, terminations, and safety procedures before (e. g. , e. g. , e. g. , e. g. , e. grounding out the capacitor terminals after disconnecting all power). This installation can be completed in an hour or less if you are familiar with electricity and tools, and if you can learn the steps and read and understand the instructions.

but It's a great product, but with the EU 2000i generator as a companion, I wanted to reduce the number of generators to just one. It's simple to set up and use, but there's only one eu 2000i. . . . When the compressor started, it ran with no load valves. However, a eu 2000i is really a 1600w inverter generator and you lose 2% for every 1000 ft elevation you lose. However, at 440 feet above sea level, my generator performed admirably. But that's where the tire hits the pavement, and I'm not sure I could go any further while running the ac. There isn't a blender or a microwave, and there isn't even a television. The eu 2200i might be able to pull it off, but it's a close call. I'm keeping the unit because it's a fantastic product that will extend the life of my generator and eliminate the need for other high-wattage items. Thanks for making it so simple to start; I think I'll switch to propane for my generators now.

I installed this over the weekend, and it was a lot easier than I had anticipated because the install kit comes with everything you need. It took me about 20 minutes, the majority of which was spent removing the ladder from the garage. The air conditioner now starts and runs on a standard 120v household outlet, and we can use a 2000w generator if necessary. Although it is not inexpensive, I believe it is a must-have.
