Whuups!
60 kWh should have read 60 Wh per day !

I am running another test of the frig. This time, I have at leat 1.5 " of foam on all sides of the frig - including the top, underside, and the front of the doors . I also threw a ( thin ) blanket over the top as well.
I am at three hours, and the reading is .07 Wh, but the compressor was still running at the three hour mark, so this skews the results. I'll have to wait longer.
At the two hour mark, my average was .025 per hour, which is really disappointing, because this would confirm that the extra insullation is indeed useless.
Time will tell.
