Those fuckers eat power like there's no tomorrow, I hear. (Or, enough to make sure there won't be a tomorrow...) IIRC Technology Connections has a video on how those tiny desktop six-small-cans-of-beverage fridges suck, and AFAICR that was mostly because they use Peltier plates. Didn't you just recently slaughter a perfectly good working refrigerator? If you still have the innards, just put those in a glass (double-, triple-, or more multiply-paned) cabinet...? -- Christian R.

No, I will not be reusing the pieces of the torn apart fridge other than as a carcass for a table and various parts. I just used a whole bunch of screws from it. The compressor is sitting broken apart in a pile of trash. I'm quite happy to have it there. I want solid state refrigeration. I Will have solid state refrigeration. If a refrigerator costs me three bucks a month to run right now and this thing cost me nine bucks a month, do you really think it will matter?

I would think it would be filled with poison gas that then deposits on the meat. I won't be using it for that purpose. But I guess if you have a really old one that you can truly rip apart you're left with a steel frame.
