Whether you save or not depends A LOT on your temperature setting and the air cond HP. If you put too low, the compressor is at full power all the time/most of the time, which means there is NO benefit from an inverter.

That is why I recommend only inverter if you put 25c/26c and you use it in a smaller room. Living room and all won't benefit from inverter.

To be more precise, how much you can save is depending on the "temperature difference" between outside and inside.

Setting to 23 degree use more electricity? same temperature setting but turn on the air cond at noon and midnight, there is a huge different. you will see air cond use more power at noon than in midnight, albeit it is set to 23 degree.
