Hi Moisheh,
I used a mechanical adjustable thermostat. It ran today even though the weather here is coolish. I think 130 F is far too hot for a cut in temperature.
Don remember all the test data threads I posted 2-3 years ago when we installed our Amish cooling unit. A 130F down to 110F cycles would be about ideal the best I remember. If the top coils do not get really hot the temperature gradient just is not there that is needed. While Norcold pushed their cooling units demands too far in the 1200 series they do know the best temperature of the disc settings I expect. :)
We found in our Norcold 6162 short of triple digits the fan(s) helped a bit on the initial cool down especially if on propane because of all the waste heat but not in day to day usage that was worth the drain on the batteries if no shore power.
Yes the 1200 needs a lot of help.
