With all of this talk about AC Unit power demands with solar, I was wondering if these Power-Save and Power Works products could help reduce the loads and surges in question. Below is a promotional propaganda from Power-Save claiming large offsets of AC loads by using their products to offset the reactive loads. Does anyone have experience with these? Any thoughts?<BR>

<BR>
While I was testing the unit, I had my friends present. I tested the product on the load side, and I found no difference in the amperage draw to my A/C unit on the circuit conductors directly from the breaker to it. At first, I was disgruntled. After settling down and thinking about what I had just done, I realized my error and clamped my Fluke meter on the mains directly behind the meter registering current draw at the line side of the load center....and BINGO!!!!<BR>
<BR>
On start up, the A/C unit went up to 91 amps and leveled out at 13 without the Power-Save 1200 on.<B> When the Power Save unit was engaged it was a draw of 35 amps and leveled out at 8.75. That pretty much blew everyone away! After that, I tested everything with a motor load in my house. I was astonished at the significant reduction in amperage.<BR>
