Does anybody produce an air conditioner whose maximum power can be adjusted on the fly? eg. If it's an overcast day, and I want the aircon running, but I don't want to let the consumption exceed or approach the current solar production, it would be nice if I could set a wattage limit. Or if I have other large loads running and I don't want the aircon to bump the total draw up over the inverter's max. I realize this could be approximated by setting a higher temperature, but I assume a high set point won't necessarily stop the aircon from occasionally drawing full power if it feels the need to. Or am I wrong? Will a high enough set point effectively limit the max draw of the aircon? Any insights would be appreciated
