That makes more sense, thank you. What pressure in your opinion should I aim for? With 400/150 as the design, I am thinking maybe something like 330/120 at max temp? Of course staying under about 820 watts or so. Who knows maybe this 7,500BTU comp is exactly what I needed. I will not change anything til I test it on a colder night.

I now see a few reasons why the last comp died.
-Lack of oil
-To small of oil return line
-To small of power cord gauge/wiring
-Not enough suction pressure to properly cool the comp

Lessons learned!
