@Paperposts 120W was what my 12V meter was clocking my RV fridge usage. The new ones (with compressors, NOT the thermoelectric ones) use a lot less energy.
@ai6yr @Paperposts smaller is not necessarily more efficient. Under counter mini fridges tend to use as much power as full size fridges because they lack insulation. Through the door ice makers tend to add an enormous amount of heat (cold) loss, I would not be surprised if it were 50% more energy. The US "energy saver" labels ought to be accurate; I have no reason to doubt them. A few people have experimented with adding insulation to their fridges, I do not recall how much improvement they got.
