This is very impressive because a lot of older frigs I have tested consume around 2kwh to 2.5kwh a day. A lot of people complain that the new energy star fridges don't use much less power than some of the older fridges with the large exposed rear mounted passive condenser.

Energy star my ***.

If you saw my post http://ecorenovator.org/forum/geothe...elsewhere.html
You would know my fridge isn't doing so well these days. It seems like it comes on all the time but that just might be because I notice the bathroom fan every time its on. I think I will put one of my Kill-a-watt meters on it and see how it does.
I do have an up right freezer with the large exposed passive condenser I may end up converting to a fridge.
