[VAC] Re: refrig



The smallest of AC operated refrigerators run their compressor on about
1 amp at 120 volts. That ought to translate to 10 amps at 12 volts, more
practical than 25 amps. That makes me believe more that compressor based
refrigeration may be more practical these days for 12 volt operation.
The rub is to find it without having to build it and still have it fit
under the counter and drawer in my Caravel.
