I bought the Kill-a Watt P3 for the express purpose of reading the usage of the garage refrigerator. We replaced the new one that came with the house, with a 27cu. ft. 4 door model, and put the original model in the garage. So with both units being new, all things should be equal, except that the indoor unit is much larger. Understandably, the garage refrigerator ran much more in the summer months. With the cooler months here, the garage one runs less, but still more than the one inside, even though it's smaller. I don't remember the usuge numbers from the Kill-a-Watt meter, but I do remember figuring it was about $6 to $7 a month. Now with all that being said, the Kill-a-Watt stopped working after a few months, so I have question the validity of it's readings.
