Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I was on the fence with getting one of these for quite a while, despite alot of glowing reviews. It is a fair amount of money for an upgrade. But, with this new competitor to the "other brand" soft start and the double warranty, cheaper price etc, I decided to give it a whirl. Installation was very simple on my mere year old 13.5k Dometic Brisk Air II. NetworkRV has diagrams you can print out and follow, which really simplifies things. It took maybe 30 minutes to install. We fired it up on house 120AC just to make sure it was wired up correctly and working (it was). We then unplugged shore power and fired up our Honda EU2000. Initially we tried it on ECO, but it wouldn't fire it up. The delay from ECO to full power was too long and the generator got in a weird surge rhythm trying to supply enough juice. No big deal, I did not expect it to work on ECO mode. I am at over 5000ft elevation and Generators simply don't have as much power as at sea level. Try 2, we turned ECO off and then tried the AC again, it fired right up and worked great! We turned off the AC, gave it a few minutes for the AC head pressure to equalize, then tried it again. It started right up with zero problems what-so-ever! Holy smokes I am impressed! I feel at higher elevations, where generators loose 10% per 3000ft elevation (read that somewhere), a EU2000 is on the edge of powering my RV AC. I sold my pair of EU2000's I was using previously, and have now upgraded to a single EU2200i, just to give me that additional power boost when we are up at +8000ft elevation in the national forest on hot days. Bottom line, IT ABSOLUTELY DOES WORK! We fired the AC right up on a single EU2000i. :) I am so happy I don't have to lug around 2 generators, twice the space, twice the refueling etc etc. Very cool upgrade for sure. And very happy with the unit. ***UPDATE*** 5/31/2020 So with the covid19 virus thing locking things down, we haven't been able to camp as much this spring until now. Its now very hot out... and frankly, I cannot keep my AC running with a single EU2200I. I am very frustrated at this point. We just returned from a very hot sticky trip where I couldnt get the AC to run for more than 2-3 minutes before tripping the breaker on the Generator. Their claim of "run on a small generator" I guess means if it runs for a couple minutes thats good enough? So yes my initial review was correct... for much cooler weather it did start and run on a single EU2000i, but in 100 degree weather a single EU2200i just cant pull it off at my elevation. Lowering my review to 2 stars as the AC does start easier, as they claim... and on a single generator, but it will not run for any length of time unless maybe you are at sea-level. I am regretting selling my previous two EU2000i's to try to move to a single EU2200i using this soft start. I wasted alot of money, and am very unhappy with the result.
