I have a Waeco CF50 and I'm about to
test it on a 1r to see how long it will last. Want to know what temperature I should set Waeco at to freeze and also ideal temperature for chilling cold drinks.

If you want to conserve power,freeze 1st on 240v.
I have a 100 amp battery and I get a good 3 days but not on freeze.
More like about 4-5c.
Trying to keep things frozen really sucks up the power

I set
mine on + 4 deg C for cool drinkies , milk and butter ..
and somewhere around - 10 deg C for frozen .. BUT I havent
been anywhere warm yet - only Tassie and southern Victoria !!
Mine runs at 4.5 amps for about 10-15 minutes ( once its cold ) .
On a really hot day in the back of the Jeep it was running at 6 amps for a lot longer !!
But its a good fridge ...

I have my CF50 at +2 usually. Keeps things very cold without freezing.
It'll run for a few days on my 120AH AGM ... but obviously this is highly dependent on weather conditions and how the fridge is used.

Cool drinks ? Now if your talking beer it should be at 2-4c max for domestic and a degree or 2 colder for imported such as Becks-Heiniken ,gas content in the imported means frothing over if temp not cold enough.
