Finally a great, unbiased, discussion on the subject. This thread, more than other brand oriented ones, should help people decide the TYPE of ac based on specs, individual needs and usage patterns. Brand preferences can come later. Also, based on these calculations, can the math whiz(zes)...

According to the internet, this info seems correct, but I got a brochure from the showroom which mentions the same specs for the YLS as the YJS - 3.88. When I asked the dealer about it, he said the name change is mostly a rebadge and a few improvements. Specs remain the same. Probably that was...

What is your budget, you haven't mentioned. If you can stretch it to 41k get the MHI 1 ton. It has a COP of 3.88! (which will be equivalent to a 5 star a few years from now) Since it's a ground floor west facing, I'm guessing not so much DIRECT sunlight in the room. In any case, check out the...

Yeah I know. Despite all my research, I settled for a last years rating :( I was highly tempted to go for the 41k R410a inverter machine which is superior in ALL aspects. The cost for both plus install plus electrician (had to install new phase, etc) would have set me back by a bit too much...

Here are a few installation pictures.. I'm still without a plug and socket. Waiting for the electrician to come. Yesterday couldn't get one to come because of Election holiday in Pune. So still haven't experienced it's 'heavy duty cooling' :| All these are pictures of the AC installed...

Thanks everyone for all your inputs. I've booked the AC today and the installation will take place tomorrow. I'm EXCITED :happy: Will post detailed pics of the install and the veterans here can comment on whether it's better/worse/different than other installs they've seen. Stay tuned for...

Going just by the specs the Hitachi Ace Inverter is really nice. But it is more expensive than its competitors. Use inverter only if your usage is going to be enough to recover the cost differential over the period of the warranty (5 years). If budget is not an issue Mitsubishi Heavy Industries...

Thanks for your help on this one.. I agree that the 190W min rating should be ~1A. The given ratings seem inconsistent. But even the spec sheet fwded to me by the MHI rep is the same pdf. The MHI is cheaper by around 1.5k I meant. Final quote of 41.3k for the 1T inverter whereas the online price...

Hi... so i've decided to buy two ACs (receiving 10% off on MRP) and will update with pics as installation happens. Before i place the order i'd just like your help with these calculations: The MHI inverter 1T AC consumes lesser minimum input power (190 watts) but draws higher minimum current in...

I visited the MHI brand shop in Pune today (opp vijay sales near station) I agree about the setup of the place and the display of the internal components. It was a refreshing change from the salesman dominated atmosphere of other brand showrooms. The person there was extremely knowledgeable and...

Could you please direct me to the spec sheet of such an AC? 1T COP (even max rating) 7?! I'd like to check it out...

According some posts in these forums, R-32 is just a re hash (marketing gimmick) of R 22 and is not as advanced as R410a. other than that.. any leads about ACs guys? Seems like Hitachi ACE (inverter or without) is the way to go.. given the high COP and Cooling capacity as compared to other brands?

OKay, after a bit of minimal digging up, I find that even in 1T inverters, Hitachi Ace inverter gives a staggering max cooling of 14330 Btu/hr and a rated cooling of 12900 btu/hr with a COP of (3.75 - 4.15) which I find impressive. This is more than Sharp 1T inverters and Daikin 1T (cooling...

Thanks for your response.. My room does have a lot of direct sunlight since it is east facing. I'm from Pune and temps go 36-40 degC in Summer during the day. I haven't got an actual quote for it but the hitachi online price is 40k and i'm assuming at least 3-4k for installation, extra wiring...

Hi, I'm sorry I can't be of help w.r.t your query, but I was wondering if you could share your experiences about the 1.2T Follow Me by Hitachi. How effective is it? Also, did you have any problems with their After Sales Service? I'm looking to purchase this: is it similar to what you have? I'd...

Hello all, After lots of savings it is summer time and time to splurge on an AC. Before I get to the actual point let me explain the predicament of my room (~130 sq ft). There's a beam and a wall between which the AC needs to go. The space between the two is exactly 38 inches. So all the...

Mods, please delete this thread. Issue resolved. procured required item.

@havoknation: Issue Resolved! Thanks for sharing the TE spirit. I'll run it temporarily using the cable and later upgrade PSU! Yay!

Anyone who has a spare or willing to sell. Deals in Pune/Mumbai preferred. Anyone who has a spare that came with graphics card purchase?

Actually BOUGHT? hmm.. i might be familiar with that concept, yes :P Thanks.. any lead on computer stores in Pune which might have? Computek/Computciti type places said they don't.. Anyone in pune willing to give-away/sell cheaply? OR DCC/ Sujata computers?
