So your Whirlpool refrigerator is drawing on average 4 amps/hour of 12 volt power, or roughly 100 amp-hrs in a 24 hour period.
Good morning. I can't speak for others but our 22 foot whirlpool draws approximately 95 to 110 watts when it cycles on. This is according to the inverter read out and confirmed by my fluke clamp on ammeter. Depending on conditions it seems to be cycled on anywhere from 15 minutes to 25 minutes per hour so lets say about a 1/3 duty cycle.
Hope this helps with your calculations.
