EasyStart MicroAir 368 Soft Start Home Commercial Easy Start (ASY-368-X48), Air Conditioner Soft Start Works with Generator, Start Air Conditioners at Less Power, Home and Commercial Use - Grey

I am at 6,700 starts on my Heatpump since installing . I love this product . I can now use my Generator to run the heatpump . Avg startup current is about 37amps , down from 67 Amps .Then after start it runs around 12-13 amps . Besides the ability to use a Generator to start . Now my heatpump starts quietly , Its far easier on the unit itself with softstarts , and im saving a bunch on electricity as well so now the easy start has become Free. I installed myself as i am an inside Wireman by trade .

I dont know the previous actual starting current for my new 3 ton AC, but it is now about 25 amps.

Great product, the run capacitor failed on my compressor, easystart refused to keep trying to start, saving my compressor motor from over heating. Replaced capacitor, all is good. Had to call factory to find out how to clear the error code on my easystart.

A compact and easy to install unit. Tech support was very helpful and you can actually talk to a real person! This is a simple 4 wire install and the directions with pictures were great! Im glad I bought this unit!

Too many times after a hurricane has rolled through I have been multiple days to 2 weeks running on portable generators and portable AC units, not any more! Our old 2.5Ton central unit starts up on a 9500W generator now. At a minimum, this device staggers the compressor startup until after the condenser fan gets up to speed. After running for a few months I sent a report through the app interface to tech support and they suggested a setting modification based upon the data they received - within hours of me sending it. Outstanding!

Edit : Just moved from a 2 story house with 2 ac units a 2.5ton 1st floor and a 3ton upstairs and added Kickstarters to both units so my 12kw portable generator could handle the whole house and it did but i knew the generator wouldnt handle the new house with 3.5ton at 119amp inrush edit : so i ordered this a few months back for a new construction home and i waited till i knew what HVAC system was installed so i could order the correct one and i moved in about 2 months ago but between all the smart switches, security system ceiling fans etc etc i finally got to install this and i have to say Im blown away as my 3.5ton unit was pulling 119amps on start (inrush) and i could easily notice the lights dim when the ac kicked on but now Im at 27.5 amps inrush so i know theres no problem my 12k w Duromax dual fuel generator will handle the new home i measured the inrush amps with the meter and compared to the Bluetooth app and was an exact match so overall i am very pleased to the point that i may order 2 more for my old 2 story house Im renting out Edit : so its been a several weeks ago seems to be going great finally got around to installing it in a weather tight box just to give it some extra protection very happy with it

These are stupendously expensive but do actually work very well indeed. Has taken a lot of strain off of my solar inverter. The only bad things about it are very short Bluetooth range and the fact that it is on the load side of the contactor so you can only see whats happening when your AC is actually on.

Installed this on my whole house Rheem 4 ton unit. Before install the inrush amps measured 113. After 5 learn runs the inrush was down to 29 amps. Anybody who can read the circuit diagram of their ac should be able to install this. The Bluetooth app makes doing the learn runs easy.

We have a 3 ton central AC unit and I decided to switch it to our offgrid system running on a 6K split phase growatt inverter. Everytime when the AC kicked on, the inverter was overloaded and shutoff. After searching around, I decided to buy this unit to test it it out and I am more than happy with the result. Smooth starts of inverter after learning and now the start peak is around 23A which is great. Highly recommended for large AC and offgrid system.

Easy to install. Works as advertised. Seller was great, Got my order sooner than expected.
