The main difference with some of the Actron units mentioned is that they vary airflow also (Ultima) With traditional inverter and digital scroll units the compressor may 'ramp' down or up depending on conditions and set point but the airflow still only has a minimum and maximum so if you turned zones off, the compressor would ramp down but the airflow is still pumping out to perhaps the one zone you want running. The Actron Ultima addresses this and gauges both compressor and airflow output - big plus in my book You get what you pay for!
