I Have an P85 and completely agree with gavine
sometimes in the morning you need just a little ac
so like a thermostat in the house you should be able to set it
at 76 degrees so it would cycle the compressor when needed
and would also increase your range by not having the compressor on all
the time
I actually build a electric cycler for my ice
Because it would keep the compressor running
when you adjusted the stupid air duct temp control
that would just mix in hot air from the engine
it worked perfect
12 seconds on 30 seconds off
or 12 seconds on 60 seconds off
giving nice temp control and improving millage
and for an electric car this is very important
its actually worse because the compressor will run
and the strips will kick in and sucking down your battery
go ahead plug your car in don't set to charge. turn on climate and
and watch amp draw from outlet on your charge display
we need a software switch for heat or ac !
