Hi Mike and Jennifer, You guys do such a good job on your You Tube Channel. I am learning so much from your interviews. You can really tell that you are an experienced interviewer. Thanks for doing this!!!!
Cost too much this unit is $300 and the air-conditioning companies are fighting against each other to sell their units in the ad that $300 plus their installation fees they would lose money in the long run so they leave it to you
what about a comparison between a Micro-Air and SoftStart. From what I've read, SoftStart uses the same technology as Micro-Air. I know SoftStart has been putting a lot of money into promotion, but does really make it an improvement over Micro-Air?
I have a Dometic Penguin with a Heat pump (don't know about a relay) model number 651816HXX1C0-01. I was interested in getting a SoftstartRv to allow me to use my Atima 2000Y (2000 Watt Generator). I was just on the phone with Andrea at Dometic to confirm this is safe for my new A/C (installed in July of 2021). Andrea started "DO NOT install this on your A/C as it will Void my 2 year warranty). I was surprised, as I was very interested in being able to run the A/C on my motorhome off a more quiet (compared to the 4000watt Onan Generator in my motorhome) and more fuel efficient Yamaha 2000Watt generator.
Mike, Quick question. Reading some recent reviews from people purchasing on Amazon several state they are/have had problems getting tech support from Soft Start for installation. For me support is critical if I purchase. What are you hearing? Product sounds great.
With this technology could I run the air conditioner off of a solar panel? How can I add more batteries to my RV or an "boat A/B" switch to run longer? Who can I trust to provide honest answers?
If I am moochdocking and have a SoftStart what type of extension cord will I need. 10 Gauge? Does it need to be a 20 amp and not a 15 amp? I have a 30 amp Wonder. Please advise.

Why don’t all air conditioners have soft start technology built in already?

Why don’t the RV manufacturer’s offer soft start as a factory option? I’d much rather pay the cost as part of the upfront cost.

All your videos are so informative and entertaining!!! And I don't even have an RV.. hopefully some day!
This is great! Does Mike have a website or UA-cam Channel. He is very good at explaining very complicated things. Very good!
Thank you for this podcast. Electricity is always scary to me

When running your AC off the onboard generator , what type of summer fuel consumption are you averaging?
