Hmm. 12:00PM implies twelve hours past midday (p.m. = "post meridian" = past
midday). That would be midnight. From there to 7:46PM means the ac has been
on for almost twenty hours.

Of course one could also say 12:00AM (a.m. = "ante meridian" = before
midday) which would also be midnight.

Sorry, 12:00PM is noon. Have a High School diploma?? Is English your
native language??

I know how to tell time I wasn't sure YOU did based on the problem
solving skills you have displayed thus far

noon or midnight eliminates any possible confusion as does "seven
hours" vs "hours"

the more humble & helpful (clearly posed questions) you appear the
more likely you'll get help

I know you're frustrated having a problem that you don't have the
skills or resources to address but ****ing off people who could
possibly help you isn't a good idead.

btw

my A/C works fine (& I know how they work)
I don't have to ask for help from a bunch of abuse a$$'s in alt.hvac

I don't live in an 800 sq ft apt at the mercy of some cheap landlord

stop whining & get a window unit.......you've already ****ed away more
than the cost of a unit on electricity

have a nice day
