A small freezer wouldn't be the solution though because then I'm still running the refrigerator and having nothing or less in the freezer due to the warmer temperature not allowing me to have anything in it. A dual evaporator energy star refrigerator with dual digital thermostats would be ideal but those are extremely expensive and I'm not sure I could modify the defrost circuit to be less aggressive like I've done with the manual defrost on my current model. I just pulled the refrigerator apart to investigate this and it looks like it might be more work than it's worth considering what you've just said about the viability of doing this. I also looked at the KAW figures when it's this cold and I'm figuring it's worth microwaving to defrost the frozen refrigerator contents or leaving them on the counter a bit until they've defrosted as being the appropriate solution to simply deal with it. ..or be the human PID.

Sorry sir, I don't understand how the PID works, and it was only only ever used as a simple temperature display.
Quickly, I found it was a very loud RF noise source and interfered with AM radios and remote control devices. It's been unplugged for many months..

But, in the absence of that information, it seems to me that you could have been sent a model that is a simple temperature controller, and not a PID controller. I have purchased both. As far as I can see, the factories that make these things use the same cases and displays for each, but it is the electronic guts that make the difference. * * * Now, there is a possibility that you have the correct model, but you haven't taken the time or made the effort to come to grips with the cryptic menu system. Could that be the case? -AC
