On the back of my fridge it says
Input power: 75 watts.
It's a 1.6 cu ft Attitude AT16BF
That's what I'm basing the 400 watts on, and I'm sure the tv doesn't take more than 200 watts either but I like the Canadian Tire option. I think I'll go with that.
Thanks for the tip SoundGuy.
can you see the compressor
look for the LRA number
thats Lock Rotor Amps, to restart the compressor when its cycling
that compressor probably has an LRA between 9~12 amps
that 1000 to 1400 watts
its similar to starting your A/C which might run on 10~13 amps but have an LRA of 50+ amps
your starting a refrigeration compressor, smaller size less load
BUT its the startup thats the killer, not the run load
