We love our AC as well, but not during the day (we are talking Oct-Nov now remind you and not April and also we don't have Aircon in the living room). I can stand the heat quite well and the SWMBO is in the garden all day anyway ????
Our highest avg use of units was in March - April - May of 2021 and was around 14 Units a day but that was before we got the Solar in to feed to Garden Tank, this year it was down to avg < 9 Units a day (same period) .
With our GTI we are down to max 2 (sometimes if 1(ish) and that is running an aircon at 26c - 28c, fridge (21Q) showering, TV, NUC/Apple TV, lights etc etc.
That said we have a meter that is spinning backwards
