backchannel: how much juice?

Got a BougeRV 30qt fridge/freezer (one or the other) from Amazon for about $150 that works great. Using 12v to my Jackery it draws only about 15% a day.

That’s great. Crazy you can have a freezer with so little juice

  1. OP above didn’t say they were running it as a freezer
  2. OP didn’t state the Jackery’s battery capacity so “15%” is meaningless for anything but gauging his autonomy
  3. OP didn’t state whether or not the net -15% includes any form of charging in the field
