rajanmehta 4,056 Report post Posted May 3, 2012 I am using DAIKIN Inverter 1.5 Tones from last 1 year and would recomend the same. I pay around Rs.200 every month with 12 hours of daily use. You must be very lucky to have a faulty electricity meter. If that's not the case, immediatelly approach Guiness Book. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KapilAgrawal 340 Report post Posted May 3, 2012 Everything is possible with Inverter AC subject to Ambient temperature. but Rs. 200/month with 12 hours/day is too very less. Less than a water cooler. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Checked the spec and one correction here this is DAIKIN Inverter 1 Ton AC I run it @ 250 C and there is no meter fault as for rest all appliances also use same power meter and there is no error in there power consumption. Initially this surprised me too, but that is the case. Edited May 4, 2012 by @v@nit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

amtrag 20 Report post Posted May 5, 2012 Correct. Invertor ACs have nothing to do with an Invertor. Offtopic: I was wondering whether these should be called rectifier ACs and not Inverter. Isn't it? Sent from my Incredible using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rajanmehta 4,056 Report post Posted May 5, 2012 Panasonic Inverter AC's are available at a good price from BuyThePrice.com AC festival.

dkaile 1,051 Report post Posted May 6, 2012 (edited) Finally ordered Panasonic Cube AC 1.6T (19000 BTU) 2 Star rating; Power consumption 2000Watts for my sparingly used area (to be used for 1 hour 2-3 times a week) @19K; Total price including installation and stabilizer is 22K. Normal cooling capacity of 1.5T split AC is 17000 BTU and this is about 10% more efficient in cooling. As the AC is to be sparingly used, power consumption was not an issue.

hhlo 0 Report post Posted May 10, 2012 Inverter AC is nothing but marketing words.. its not converting in DC also... process with Convert AC to DC is known as rectifier/rectifition.... not inverter... in normal AC it switch off compressor when it reach temp. cut off. in inverter AC it use SCR/IGBT an electronics component,, that slow down compressor when it reach near to cut off temp. there is more energy loss in start & switch off AC ?? why & how? that is long to explain.. so inverter AC is better by ~10% in energy saving... but you have pay very high cost.

You are somewhat ill informed. An Inverter AC will have two parts: 1. Rectifier to get you to dc. 2. Inverter using SCR/IGBT/VMOS or whatever, for all I care. This will produce AC of a variable frequency depending on the cooling needs as reeived from the electronics. This power will then drive the compressor. The advantage of an Inverter unit is that as against shutting down and restarting the compressor periodically you reduce its speed to match the exact requirements. One side point, with 1 above a stabilizer is not required. Edited May 11, 2012 by sgiitk 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rangasamy 0 Report post Posted May 11, 2012 Inverter AC's are far better. I have an LG inverter 1 ton AC which runs on Honda 1.4KVA generator smoothly. the same capacity non iverter model will require a 5 KVA generator. It consumes less power..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sgiitk 32 Report post Posted May 14, 2012 In an invertor AC you can (and should) use AC motors since they can be made to work at a different speed by the intertor part. With a dc motor you cannot get rid of the brushes, which will wear out at some point. Also, these commumators can be electrically noisy, dinosaurs like me may recall that with dc power radio's had it with the electrical noise from fans.
