- Опубликовано: 10 авг 2023
- In this video I try out (3) different RV soft starts I found off Amazon. I take the in-rush before and after to determine which one works the best and end up ordering a total of (4) for my roof top AC's.
Check out my website - Hunleygarage.com

Please find an affiliate link to each soft start below;
- ANSIKE - 11.69 amps - amzn.to/3OtMWBj
- Spartan - 18.47 amps - amzn.to/3qreMGe
- Briidea - 16.8 amps - amzn.to/3s3XjEl
Check out my other RUclips channel Campprevost.
This is a new channel for me, showing all the crazy things I do in my garage. I am finishing up a Kawasaki 650sx Jet Ski and will post the final video soon and put it up for sale. Once I get it going, I will be getting something else to tear apart and get working - then put it up for sale. If the channel gets big enough, I would like to give them away.
Stay tuned for more!

Good video on the soft starts thanks. Wasn’t able to click through on your affiliate link to order.
Thanks for the heads up. I have to see what’s wrong
Thank you
Welcome
Good information gonna miss your bus ☹️
Yeah - me too :(
Great video would it be possible to do video on wiring install of ansike softstart. Thank you
Thanks! I sold the coach so not on mine. Crazy how different they all are.
Thanks for the help and sorry didn’t see your first reply. Are you saying to put it on the Black in line from the fuse box, not sure why I am seeing the both Power and Start lights are staying on
Did you ever get it figured out?
When you say “intercept” the black wire coming from the compressor…do you mean you cut it and connect the soft start black wire to the end connected to the compressor? Or cut it and splice it in with the complete wire?
Which soft start? I think each one was a little different configuration. I had to study what the soft start wanted and studied the wiring diagram. Then figured it out from there. I tried not to cut wires when possible. The hardest part was cutting a hole between the wiring box and the compressor compartment for the one soft start.
Did you end up selling the RV? I'm installing a DDORUU softstart that looks like (and wires) the Briidea you installed. Thanks for trying the three of them.
I did. Been doing it for 6 years, kids getting older and not enough time. Will probably get back into it after they graduate.
Hey there, I got the ddorvu 6 months ago and have yet to install it. Did yours work for you? I’m seeing different results from different brands and am wondering if we sacrificed performance by saving money. So many times they’re same except in the name.
I am trying to install two of these units though having problems with where to put the black wire, keep getting both Power and Start Lights continuously. Any ideas.
Ahh. I had to sit down and make a diagram for myself - I left it in my coach and have sold it. If I remember correctly, I believe it wires to the black after it comes into the unit and wires to the main board. So it intercepts the black as it comes off the main board. I did do 3 different soft starts, so could have that wrong.
Also have to remove the PCT and start capacitor. I left it in there but removed the wires to and from.
@@Hunleygarage I have removed the other start capacitor though do not know where the Black Wire from the Softstart attaches
Are those cigs solar panels?
Yes, if interested I can provide the contact info from where I got them.
@@Hunleygarage I just stuck 600 watts of them on my camper. Work great, my only concern is the rubber roof membrane and elevated temperature. Have you had any issues?
@@CreepyCharlieI didn’t but not sure that adhesive will be coming off anytime soon!
Which clampmeter ?
