Hish, how 'bout if I visit you this summer and camp out in the heat of Las Vegas. We can play with the AC together to see how it works?

In fact their fans almost always are spinning. They use far less energy for those running them off of inverters. That's good info CC_Guy. Packaging is a big issue with the alternative mini-spits and I've wondered whether they can be placed on their sides. As you said, most of them do have constantly running compressors. I think the marketing term for that is 'inverter technology', it's the same sort of tech used in the ultra low power refrigerators: Samsung, etc, which is basically Variable Frequency Drive; i.e., an AC motor where the inverter controls the frequency of the motor's input voltage to adjust compressor speed. They should be power inverter (Heart, Xantrex, etc) friendly because I think the first thing they do is rectify the incoming power AC to DC. I'm sure you know all of this, but just for completeness sake... david brady, '02 Wanderlodge LXi 'Smokey' (Sold), '04 Prevost H3 Vantare 'SpongeBob' "there is no perfect forum there are only perfect forums" |
