minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink4•2 years agoSeems comparable. And you would only be opening one and losing energy for half of the total volume when doing it this way.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink2•2 years agoAgreed, probably a little more efficient to use the 2 mini fridges.
minus-squareBrkdncrlinkfedilink4•2 years agoYou don’t lose half of the volume when you open a fridge door. The “cold” is stored in the items inside the fridge.
minus-squareRagglemcsnicslinkfedilink4•2 years agoWhile yes you’re very right, that also assumes you have the fridge packed full.
minus-squareBrkdncrlinkfedilink4•2 years agoIf you’re interested in saving electricity, you should. Even if it’s just a pot of water. Empty refrigerators run constantly.
minus-squareOobleckonyofacelinkfedilink8•edit-22 years agoElectrically comparable only if they are volumetrically, which they are not. Typical mini fridges have an average volume of 2.5 to 3 cubic feet. So approximately one sixth the volume for half the electrical consumption is not a worth trade.
