In my new home I am totally off the grid...for everything including power,
I have found that the new technology compressors use significantly less power than the old ones. so have done a lot of research and measurements on appliances...some whilst in the retail store.
Recently I purchased a Samsung "digital inverter " refrigerator that I measured as a peak of 80 watts and a quiescent 20w whilst making ice blocks in an hour.
That is the same as my laptop when charging.
I suspect that the same technology is or will soon be available for air con units?
