Thanks for sharing this. I have found others with similar experiences. When did you switch? Do you mind sharing the brand and model that you have?

‘’I’m trying to figure out if the latest ones, that are rated for even lower temperatures might overcome this problem.

It has been three years I think. I have a Mitsubishi. The Mitsubishi seems to be everywhere.

I should also mention that operating costs of course depend on electricity rates. I have the Cambridge municipal 100% renewable plan. My rate with delivery is $0.30/kWh. That’s another annoyance with news articles; they often assume a much lower rate. I think they omit delivery charges, but I guess there are places in the US where electricity really costs half of that.
