THOR #1150
We have the smaller 13.5k unit on our Axis which ran 12 amps before the mod--the mod doesn't change the running current draw, just reduces the start current (the video at the beginning of this thread shows that).

In another thread where I installed that volt/amp meter I measured a bunch of things and pretty much all the high current appliances in our coach (hair dryer, water heater on electric, air conditioning, hot plate, microwave, etc.) draw about 12 amps (which makes sense since a few were designed to operate off of a 15 amp circuit).

I don't have a picture of the volt/amp meter showing the starting current of our A/C prior to the mod, however. I believe that was somewhere around 20 amps if I recall correctly. I do know that it would blow the house breaker on our 15 amp garage circuit when the compressor would kick in.
