I wonder if the fuse in your panel is AFCI or GFCI - high inrush of current on cold startup could be the culprit.

I've since replaced AFCI outlets to microwave above stove and refrigerator, problems of the breakers tripping solved for me.

I know these games only use 8amps or so, maybe 10amps on a cold startup - is anything else plugged/wired to the same breaker as the LAH?
