microair easy start results
Well, here is a summary of the microair easy start on my coleman MachIII 13.5KBTU AC. First, the current results before installation. I had the supco soft start cap along with a 10 second time de...

Hi,
Could you not run it before on the 2400? Any idea what the voltage was when running?ewarnerusa wrote:ewarnerusa wrote:

Generator test was a success! High altitude blazing hot temps will be the true test though.
At home (~4400' elevation) I have had moderate success running it before the Micro Air but with a SUPCO SPP6 hard start capacitor. So last night's generator test wasn't too informative, although I was happy to have it work. Killawatt said 124V I believe with it running off gen? I know it read that much before I fired the air con up and I recall checking it again with it running and not being alarmed in any way. RPMs ramped up smoothly when compressor kicked in and there wasn't a bogging-down will-it-or-won't-it-trip-the-fault hesitation.
When I've tried running the air con during camping use, usually a lot higher elevation than home and of course blazing hot out, I have been disappointed enough with generator performance that I stopped trying or even bringing it along at all.
