It came that way. On the bottom, you can see two white cables connected
into the Crankcase heater element, that encircles the base of the compressor.
When I turn the unit off, that heater stays on, drawing 30-40 watts.. 24-7.

I was just thinking, a lot of these power surges occur right around sunup..
Maybe I should set the remote timer function to shut down the Sanyo at 4:30 AM.?.
