Refrigerator quit. Ordered a replacement cooling unit. After I installed it, I discovered it was leaking refrigerant. So I'm returning the unit and considering just using a 115V refrigerator since I have only run this one on 115VAC for the last 3 years.

There's a Chinese refrigerator that the label says requires: 'Input Current' of 1.1A @ 115V and 'Power Input' of 95W; Estimated Yearly Electricity Use of 311 kWh. Looks like the 7.5 cu ft box (6 cu ft refrigerator and 1.5 cu ft freezer) would fit nicely in my space. If I'm figuring right; and I'm no engineer, that input power of 10amp @ 12V would be adequate. I wouldn't think at that rate that it would overtax the alternator while traveling. Battery use maybe another matter as I have no idea of compressor run time per hour. Is this in the ball park? Is it worth a try to run it on 12V?
