Something I have wondered about this is Max A/C means the compressor does not work as hard, but it requires another fan to kick on (which is considerably louder than the normal fan, but probably irrelevant) which requires a larger load on the alternator.

So, which wins out? A more frequent but intermittent A/C compressor or a constant draw fan? I don't know the answer.
