YUP, AC powers up fine, but only runs about 15 minutes before the 15amp garage breaker trips. It's 100* with 5percent humidity here, and I'm running through 75ft of cord and 4 different connections, so it's not surprising. BUT, both AC's will cycle on (one-at-a-time) on the 15amp circuit with the new dogbone. Another data point to pass to the next FNG!

Welcome..... and just a quick tip after seeing the picture you posted.
Don't leave your power cord and extension cords coiled. The heat during maximum current draw can cause them to melt and possibly catch fire.
Sounds like you are pushing your 15A circuit as it is so you want to keep your run as short as possible and don't coil any excess power cords.
Good luck!
