[QUOTE="condor22, post: 546742, member: 1932"] Simple - No matter the size of a fridge or brand, if they draw 3 amps when running, then when running as a -18 freezer, they are running pretty well constantly if the ambient is 20 C or higher. It's the temperature differential i.e when run as a 4 C fridge, if it's 45 C outside or higher in a car, it will use a similar amount of power as just mentioned. When run as a fridge, it will depend on size, insulation, which compressor, what's in it and ambient temp etc etc and here you see a difference in daily power use. So if you measure power usage outside in England in winter, lol - you basically don't need a fridge. I was 16 when I emigrated here and up until that time, the only fridge I saw was in the local Co-Op supermarket, we didn't have one at home. :) [/QUOTE]
