I was thinking rip off also if it was during regular hours. I felt ripped
off when I was charged $ 40 for a capacitor when some other work was done on
my unit. The capacitor should have been about half that.

Guess it depends on where you are in the country. Thinking about $ 50 per
hour and a 2 hour call (driving time included ,about 1 hour) and parts.
maybe $ 120 to $ 150 tops.
