Arrives before Christmas 
Stay cool on the water. ActiveStart lets you start your marine AC with a small generator, protects your boat's electronics from surges, and lets you monitor everything from your phone. And it has a replaceable surge module if this one wears out.
A soft start device reduces the initial inrush current when an AC compressor kicks on. Instead of that harsh power spike that can trip breakers or overload generators, the soft start gradually ramps up the compressor's motor, making it easier to start an AC unit on limited power sources (like small generators, shore power, or inverters).
Not only will this device reduce your startup power demand by up to 70 percent, it's going to make your AC startup quieter, and reduce wear on the compressor. Plus, you get to skip the complicated install and dealing with wiring. Just plug ActiveStart into your vessel's shore power or generator connection using the included dogbone and ground-neutral plug. You'll have safe, reliable power and cool air in less than a minute wherever you dock.
Designed to reduce startup current, ActiveStart helps you run your air conditioner with a portable generator. To guarantee performance, your generator needs at least 2,300 watts for a 13.5K AC or 2,500 watts for a 15K AC.
The surge protection module guards your boat or camper electronics and appliances from dangerous voltage spikes, rated at 3,150 joules for extra peace of mind. And if it gets hit or wears out, the surge module is replacable.
The Bluetooth mobile app makes it easy to check voltage, startup power, and view fault messages in real time, right from your phone.
