[QUOTE="condor22, post: 630038, member: 1932"] I've had the Engel Combi on in the spare room over the last week via mains 240 VAC. Primarily to chill the Xmas "lemonade". I set the fridge to -2C and empty in the freezer compartment. The fridge section has 1/2 beers and 1/2 cokes plus some choccy and flavoured milk in it. I have an Engel wireless thermometer in the fridge section, which over the last week has maintained a temp range of 1.6 to 1.8 C. It's in a non airconditioned room which is currently at 24 C (even tho 33 outside). Room ambient has ranged from 20 C to 29 C over the last week, yesterday was a 40 C day outside. Really happy with the 0.2 C consistency of the fridge temperature, even when opened for a short time for me to indulge once or twice a day.... :) I've had the 15 lt Brass Monkey in similar circumstances and recorded a 5 C difference in max/min fridge temp. (Set to 2 C and ranged from 0 to 5) [/QUOTE]
