Starts My 2hp Well Pump On 6K Inverter
By Travis B 
New Mexico
Review Posted 01/11/2023 
I removed the original start capacitor and potential relay while installing the Hyper Sure Start, It dropped the in rush current by 50%. Because the amperage varies with each start averaging around 35 amps before the install is now from 18-22 amps.

Works!
By Scott

Review Posted 08/16/2022 
Originally I received a defective unit, but after troubleshooting it with the Hyper Engineering staff, I got a replacement from EGD. With a proper working unit it does everything it claims to. My startup amperage is greatly reduced and ready for a generator. Also the light flicker from my AC is no longer an issue. The compressor is also slightly quieter now which is nice.

Great Buy
By Karl 
Florida
Review Posted 06/26/2022 
Works Great, before my A/C was loading down my whole house backup generator to the point that the lights would badly dim and the generator almost shut down. After installing I hardly notice it cutting on when the generator was running.

Worked As Expected
By David C. 
Port Townsend, Washington
Purchased 02/01/2022 | 
Review Posted 03/15/2022 
This was installed in a heat pump compressor to reduce start up load for a solar/battery system. It appears to have cut the start up load in half, making it possible to back up the heat pump with the battery system in the event of an outage.

Amazing Reduction In Locked Rotor Amps (LRA)
By Clark M. 
Kingwood, Texas
Review Posted 10/28/2021 
Measured performance exceeded expectations by a wide margin. LRA after installation was below RLA! I added 3 of these to 3 different air conditioning/ heat pump units, and all performed better than expected. The finished installation was SOOOO much quieter than the standard units. Why don't the manufacturers install these in the base case? I will now be able to run at least two of the three units on a natural gas portable emergency generator without stressing the generator on A/C startup and causing the lights to blink!

For Use With Off Grid Inverters Also

Review Posted 06/27/2021 
We have had issues with some off grid inverters powering deep well pumps. These work very well with inverters as well as generators.
