[QUOTE="Crazyboat, post: 520400, member: 21552"] A fridge doesn't run around the clock. It kicks on, runs for 10-15 minutes and shuts down until the temp goes up, much like the heater in your house. I saw a chart and a typical fridge runs about 20 minutes an hour. So that 15K number which is high imo gets cut to 5k straight away. No way I'd want to run AC on batteries as like you said, the draw would be great. It's why I used the example of box fans to keep cool. [/QUOTE]
