New 12v fridge question
I have one of these new 12v fridge/freezer units. It’s an 11 cf model. TT is new so I haven’t used it yet.
Yesterday after having increased my solar array I thought I’d click on the fridge, lights, fans, etc to start doing a little testing.
After a few hours I checked the fridge and inside is barely cool to the touch, same with the freezer. I could feel cool-ish air coming out of the vent in the back of the freezer but it certainly didn’t feel cold enough to freeze anything. I did not throw in a thermometer. This was yesterday. Left it on.
Checked again today after work, same. Hardly any draw on system.
Shut off the fridge. Turned it back on and saw a 4 amp draw. Seems to be running.
Shouldn’t everything in there be cold to the touch? Does the fact that it’s 40 ish degrees outside matter? I’m going to find a thermometer to stick in there but if anyone has any input on these new 12v fridges, if this seems normal or abnormal. I’ll update with temps when I have em.
