## Questions & Answers

**Q: How much current does it draw when in refrigerator mode and in the freezer mode?  Thank you.**
A: I have had my FM45-G for over 1 year and monitored the unit’s DC power usage. On a day when the temperature is in the low 80’s during the day and the low 60’s at night, it uses about 260 watt hours over 24 hours when set in the refrigerator mode at 38 degrees. That’s about 21-22 amp hours per day.  With my van’s 95 amp hour AGM battery, I can go about 2.5 days before I need to recharge the battery. I have not yet used it as a freezer.

**Q: Can you use vertically, with the door opening as convential refrigerator?**
A: I wouldn't recommend it. You would have to remove the handle on what side you wanted to set on the ground. The door is flush with the side so you would have to elevate it or the door would scrape on the ground. You would loose a lot of space as there is no shelving system and everything would poor out when you opened it. You would also block vents if you set it up that way and probably overheat the compressor. So in short no it is meant to be used as shown in the picture, might need to look for a different product to use it like a traditional fridge.

**Q: Can anyone tell me about a solar panel / battery system to run this? I would like to use it in a small RV.**
A: Yes this will work.   You will need a solar panel that will recharge the battery draw (you can calculate this from the watt output of different panels) and a battery large enough to provide the current draw without getting below 10.5 before it gets recharged by the panel.  You also would want a marine style deep cycle or at least a start/deep cycle combo battery.  Remember that solar panels and batteries are not 100% efficient so calculate the load accordingly.  All that said I do just this on my boat along with running additional DC loads and don't need to run my aux engine to recharge the hose bank while at anchor.

**Q: Do I have tto use the metal racks that came with the unit?  Any problems if I don't?**
A: The racks are there not only to help organize the food but also to protect the thin aluminumlining. It can be rather easily damaged by hard frozen product if allowed to drop to the bottom of the freezer. I have a few such dents before I learned my lesson. If a hole does penetrate ,that hole would then become a place to capture moisture when defrosted and when stored would become a breeding ground for mold.
