Looks like what you need! Break out the credit card and let’s get order placed. I’m curious to see how your going to route the power to it.

Yup.. just need to figure out what I want and then a deal on one. I’ve seen several deals on 13.5k BTU but not many 15k

I’d have to disagree with some of what you said. The issue with used is that they sit. You also don’t know if it’s had a leek and repaired or took an electrical hit at one time? Small units like thos, don’t ever get A vacuum pulled or put a drier on after repair and before charging. That can and will cause catastrophic compressor failure that can happen soon or even up to a year later. Just changing a capacitor isn’t going to help a compressor that has sit. I’d need a few pages to explain the many reasons why lol. A cap only needs to be replaced If it’s popped or the MicroFarad is below the 10% of its rating and that’s a recommendation. Im not saying a used one is not the way to go! It’s your prerogative just that you take a huge chance in doing so. For the extra money I’d opt for a new one and the warranty instead of doing it twice. Don’t blame me...I’m just just a senior tech so they tell me lol.

That’s where my mind is.. I could maybe find a good used one. But there are so many “new in the box” used ones, it’s just a matter of time before I run across something that suits me. The issue I do find is that most of the used new stuff is (still in the box) doesn’t have the inner control panel. By the time I buy one I could just order the amazon unit.

Had a dealer price me a Coleman Mach 3 ready to install for $840.
