      It is very useful actually. I was trying to find some real testing for LRA.

    Good info for any tech, best point, not to stand in front of compressor terminals , I always see techs in front of it and that's very dangerous as you said. Hope people pay attention and stop being overconfident. Thanks for the videos. On the other hand, if customers did routine maintenance, the tech can for see and prevent the last minute effort,by being pro active and replacing compressor, there are signs that is going out

    Good stuff bro. I agree with everything you said. I’ve gotten lucky a few times with a hard start and made a few customer’s day and I’ve had some that just won’t unlock. Thank god I’ve never had one blow out though. I bet that was freaky!

      I had done it like 100 times and then I did it to this little wine cooler with a locked up compressor and went really big with the start cap when it still wouldn’t start and then pop. Honestly scared the hell outta me

    This was another great video, maybe make a video on a checklist of things you check during a "no cooling" or "no heat" call?

    Hey bro good video, informative. I have a friendly tip.
    I got a new clamp meter and was reading the instructions, it says, When using the clamp on the meter on amp setting to pull amps, disconnect your testing probes.
    I’m guessing for more accuracy or interference.

    2:38 The compressor received 798.3 amperes!

      I looked very closely seems it was 79.1. Something was wrong?
