No more helium.......

I talked to the factory about something else and the conversation swayed to Dometic. They said Dometic tried to run Helium in the Ammonia assembly (so they could save money and not retool) and ran into all kinds of issues before dropping it... Because they were cheap. The big one was extreme startup temp because Helium is harder to get moving. Pines Refrigeration (sold through David Force) started from scratch and built it to get the fluid moving way sooner. I have an ARP installed and see that my startup temps are higher than the OEM but they drop very quickly as soon as the fluids start to perk (and runs cooler than the OEM) and the factory verifies what I see and say it's completely normal. And because it's so cold, it runs less ๐
The story is that NORCOLD was invited into the research of Helium development and declined. No suprise as that would be a technical admission of guilt for there multiple lawsuits.
