I have a 24 year old mini fridge that’s still alive and kicking. It’s a model that actually also has a freezer compartment.
I’ve been thinking about replacing it - especially since the freezer portion no longer works. But I was also curious how much more energy efficient fridge tech has gotten in the past 20 years? Like would I make up the cost of a new mini fridge pretty quickly based off the less power consumption?
I actually have one of those electricity monitors hooked up to it logging the data and I’m still kinda researching - but thought hey I’ll just ask c/nostupidquestions and maybe someone here might know right off the dome! Thanks in advance
If you want a good laugh, or possibly just transform into a pillar of salt, you could stick a temperature logger in your fridge to see if it’s actually holding its setpoint (your big one, that is, not the mini fridge).
I did that in our office fridge a few weeks ago just for a lark. The results were… not good.
I know this is random, but I like your writing style. You manage to throw in flourishes of language and colour, even dramatic biblical references, when talking about nothing more than a broken fridge.
