Compact Refrigerator -- 1.7 CF question ???
I am thinking about putting a small 1.7 CF refer in one of the basement compartments to keep a few brews cold and to avoid having to walk inside to get a refreshment. I would want a compressor mode...

You might consider something like a small "Chest" model.. Engel makes some nice ones, Kind of high price but... Well the unit defrosting beside me as I type (I am defrosting today) draws a great whomping THREE amps when running on 12 volt.. On 120 volt one of my ammeters can't even detect it (it does not do tenths) that is about 40 watts folks (Since 12 is not really 12). I run it on battery full time.
The one I have will go down to FREEZER range, I mean ZERO (f).. though I can "Turn it down" to refrigerator range.. Other models do one or the other.
Norcold I believe has one like it, Danfoss compressor.. VERY nice.. The only maintenance I've done in nearly 9 years is defrosting and last winter I took it out and blew the dust out of the condensor and compressor areas. No screwdrivers used, just compressed air and a painter's mask.
