I don't think Norcold actually made them
they were re-branded, made by some other mfg
that said, it will use less power than a Dorm fridge
if you are off grid a bunch then i would check on repairs
but you may have to get a new one
they use normal refrigerant
the special part is the variable speed DC Compressor, usually a Dan Foss design
you need somebody familiar with these to see if there is a motor problem or a power supply problem
I can explain it to you.
But I Can Not understand it for you !
