I cant get my portable AC unit (1200 BTU Edgestar 10 amp system) Because the starting burst of the AC causes my Growatt 3000 to fault out. I would like to run with 1400 watts of solar and I have even tried 2000 watts but the AC startup shuts me down. I can start it with AC bypass on the Growatt but it fails when I unplug the AC in connection.
Ive been looking at hard start and soft start for my portable AC. I have even thought of wiring in an Ametherm SL32 2R025 Thermistor somewhere on the startup line to slow the incoming surge rate on my AC unit. If I get brave I might try that today.
Plan B: Im looking for a split AC unit that will work with 1400 watts? Do you know one that will startup in that environment? I am currently using a 48 volt ebike battery for my battery. Im tring to cool my 300 sq ft porch.
