Consider Micro-Air
https://www.microair.net/collections/easystart-soft-starters
if you are considering soft starting equipment for your air conditioner.
When you consider the prices for competing equipment, the Micro-Air unit,
which seems to do exactly the same thing, is very attractively priced. AND
you can get a circuit board-only model from them way down in pricing. I
just did this for my two ACs, and being somewhat of a babe in the woods with
schematics ad such, I had numerous questions, despite their excellent
website with its excellent installation manual and diagrams for many
different AC units. I emailed photos and diagrams at all times of the day,
and never waited more than an hour or two for an answer, including Sunday
while they were at an Air Stream rally. I am quite happy with the operation
of my two Easy Starts.
