What I know is this...
Remote camping. Hot days. Food spoils with absorbsion refigerator. Sixty-mile trip to buy more perishable food. I figure I managed to toss around three thousand dollars for replacement food and fuel. New NorWork refrigerator. Oh yeah I forgot about adding in oh say six or seven hundred dollars for endless trips back and forth and the chiropractic fees.
The NorWork finally got ripped out by it's roots and tossed out the back door. I can tolerate garbage just so long. The Servel gas refrig's I owned worked perfect for years and years.
I would however suggest that some of you uneager beavers do a cumulative kWh test before pontificating energy requirements to others. EEF is a big factor and so is additional insulation cladding for the replacement. No joke. You could not GIVE ME a new refrigerator for free and 500 dollars to remove my Samsung. And by the way it holds 40% more in the freezer and on a hundred degree day the ice cream comes out of the freezer rock hard. Did I mention the nearest LPG plant is a 132-mile round trip?
