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??

Sorry, 12:00PM is not noon.

I do have a high school diploma (and several others including post-graduate
degrees). English IS my native tongue, although I can get along in a few
others, including Pig Latin and Morse Code. And, before you ask, I have been
to parts of South Georgia.

Sorry if I seemed pedantic or persnickety.
