I never thought I'd care about "efficiency" in an RV A/C unit. After all, power's free at nearly all campsites, so why care? It may not matter on a 50A coach with two 15000 units, but it does matter on a 30A with one. I won't replace our Coleman Mach 15000 till it fails, but I got to looking on the RVP (Coleman Brand) site. There ARE high efficiency 13500 units but they don't offer that in 15000.
If you get to places where available AMPS, and of course the related Volts, is an issue, then the current it takes to start an A/C and of course to keep it running can become a point to consider. A "Start Kit" will help it get going, and we have one, but we often trip our 30A service during the day, even practicing "load shedding."
