I have a 2006 Itasca Sundancer with a Coleman 8535b676 model air/ heat pump. I am wanting to add a slow start option or a new low start replacement.

Hey Rob, the SoftStarRV part # SSR54FR will be exactly what you are looking for to lower the amperage draw when your Coleman AC fires up. Are you running a generator that you need the extra amperage for?

Hey Rob, did the SoftStartRV work well with your Coleman AC to lower the amperage draw? I'm curious to know if it helped with your generator setup, as it could give others confidence when making similar upgrades.
