efficient 20 cu' Refrigerator/Freezer [RE-wrenches]

[Todd Cory, Mt. Shasta Energy Services]

These are still pretty dismal numbers considering our sunfrost uses only 140 kWh
a year. It is hare to understand why manufacturers are unable to make a standard
refrigerator more efficient. Yes ours is an RF12, so not as large, but even
running 2 would still use about 1/2 the energy use.
