I was researching TCL ACs and saw few video reviews on youtube. Most of the reviewers weren't able to bring it's consumption down even when the temperature went below the desired temperature so the went ahead and switched to gen modes.
My experience with Gree ACs is that they start to slow down immediately when desired temp is reached and our gree viola would go down to 1.5 amps and stay around there for the whole night.
Gen modes are good but I wouldn't want to manually set them every time to bring the consumption down.
This one probably the most extensive experiment video on youtube. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2JlGAmIRBk8
Anyone out here who tested consumption with clamp or energy meter, what was your experiences with TCL AC.
