Some owners have had an electrician wire in a 30 amp circuit to run their A/C at home but this is not common. All's fine if you've taken care of that already.

It is okay to plug in your Bambi with a 15 amp adapter -- everything except the air conditioner runs just fine off 15 amps.

Hope this gets through!
Good call Bob...

Nick my have to sleep under that fantastic fan vent again tonight...
