interesting. I will be very interested in the data you come up with.

I was outside earlier thinking about your post and washing the dust and plant fur off the condenser... There is a definite change in load when the coils have water flowing over them. Not checking with amp meter but its obvious just by the sound of the compressor. Course it was around 110* when I did that while outside cooking on the grill. At that temp it probably makes a major difference in amp draw.

Condensers do huff and puff allot harder when its that hot. And the air out of the condenser is extremely hot....
