Do any Class As come equipped with EasyStart installed? Or SoftStart as some call it.

Neil,

I installed two on my last 5er. The instructions that come with it are pretty easy to follow. Also, look on YouTube, there are many video's with step by step instructions that show and do.
Easy peasy!! Takes a little longer for the first one but goes fast the second time!
I think the new Furrion's Chill Cube's come with them included. I know my new 5er does. Takes you by surprise the first time you turn it on. It s l o w l y winds up then compressor kicks in. I have three and can my 18K btu ynit on 110V with no strain.

I paid a tech referred by Micro-Air to install my first one, was not done well but it works. Second one I installed under the guidance of @Chuggs and it wasn't hard but I can't find those instructions to share. And yes, I recall YouTube having info as well, just trying to collate the good resources here for our peeps here to have when the time comes.

Yes...Microair had a first rate video. They included WAGO connectors, etc...to make the kit easy to install. I think it makes it even easier if you read schematics...just knowing color codes of wiring, helps you properly identify where it is you are making connections.
