Hi folks:

There was a person on the forum who did some testing on the Vitrifrigo refrigerator, and charted the temperatures of the freezer versus the refrigerator section at various settings. The name Richard Jones sticks in my head, but I'm not sure if that's correct. At any rate, I'm looking for that data. My refrigerator section is hovering at about 29°, but I'm afraid if I change the setting I would give up the ability of the freezer to freeze things. Yes, I realize at 29° I'm already going to freeze things, but this is also at an ambient temperature of about 68°. I think this is going to change once I get out into 80° temperatures later today. I just wanted to double check the data though.

I'm not sure if anyone else has plotted the electrical usage, but on my "watts up" meter it appears I've used almost 20 amp hours in 21 hrs, so about one amp per hr, which I thought was actually pretty amazing. This is the first time I've actually tested the fridge without any other accessories running, so thought I would pass that along.

Troy
