The second month I switched the refrigerator to propane and the electric bill was 33 dollars. Does a norcold use that much power? It does seem to run all the time.
Jared, YouTube channel All About RV's, did some testing a couple years ago of how much electricity an RV absorption fridge uses when on electric. Over 6700wh in 24 hours. Compared to a residential fridge's use of 1759wh in 24 hours. Video below. It was enlightening.
