Had some wall mount units that we put on thermostats and found they wouldn't turn back on after power cycled (basically what the thermostats were doing) and they needed to be turned back on by pressing the power button on the AC unit. Believe the feature was so if there was a power bump when the utility restored, they all wouldn't come back on at the same time and trip the breaker. Some units you could override, others no joy and just left using with the on-board thermostat.

i just set the ac unit at a lower temp and the room temp dropped my tank enough.

That's kinda what I'm hoping for.
