Last time I did these calculations, it was something around 3-5% max. 240V units are sometimes a little more efficient SEER as the most major contributor. Line losses due to resistance were just a couple watts! All in all, not worth eating up another breaker for extremely small gains in my situation.
If you have breaker space though by all means do it, it's better all around, just marginally.

btw, the Pioneer shows $728 on Memorial Day
It is even Energy Star Certified. The 17000 BTU one is also $629.
Here is a 220v that is a little higher seer rating for a cheaper price 699.
In this case the 120V unit will use 120 * 10.3 = 1,236W. Meanwhile, the 220V unit will use 220 * 4.8 = 1,152W
So, in this example, 120V unit is (1,236 - 1152)*100/1,236 = 6.8% less efficient.

Here at the Energy Star site it states SEER2 > 16

This states that the new standards must be 20 SEER.
