Yeah, agree 100%. We shouldn’t compare performance or results unless conditions are the same. That’s a major flaw with Internet wisdom.

The nice thing about the motorhomes that have 2 X 11,000 Power Savers is that they include Power Management system that supposedly sheds one of the A/Cs automatically if owner runs microwave or other high-current item.

Other variables to consider are that A/C will draw more current at higher outside temperatures due to higher condensing pressure, and also that if shore power supply is at lower voltage, that too will result in higher current. A/Cs are often rated at 115V but electrical power supply can easily vary from 110V to 120V or more, which can be the difference.

With 13500 BTU/hr Power Savers pulling just over 10 Amps, it will be interesting to see how little the new 15,000 PS pull. Let’s hope the days of A/Cs requiring ~ 20 Amps is in the past.
