The easystarr is a good device but it is just a patch covering up the real problem. 

Modern inverter based variable speed compressor systems have very low startup current requirements. So new high SEER mini splits and central air conditioners do this already. What we need is for the RV a/c manufacturers to get out of the stone age and implement some modern high efficiency technology. Their stuff is still pretty much 1960's tech. 

Its not like the new systems are more expensive either, you can buy a 12kbtu/hr high efficiency minisplit for less than a Dometic Penguin. The RV a/c market is ripe for the entry of some disruptive technology I think.

It is high time for modern technology to be incorporated. The issue is to make it durable enough to survive bouncing around. Most mini-splits are not going to be involved in a rolling earthquake.
