Hey Paul;

Remember me from Windy's gatherings? We found the most efficient fridge 
for the money, is a small AC chest style deep freeze (Danby, etc.) with 
an external thermostat (available from Backwoods Solar). We've seen 
amazingly low energy use (under 500 watt-hr/ day) for a fraction of what 
Sunfrosts cost. Add a couple of 1 gallon water jugs frozen in our winter 
nights and you can cut that energy use to below 300 watt-hrs, depending 
of course on where its located in your house.
Downside: the ergonomics  are not as good with a chest style  model. See 
a fridge comparison article at 
http://www.solarray.com/TechGuides/Refrigerators_T.php
or at www.backwoodssolar.com. <www.backwoodssolar.com>

Peace,

Ray Walters
