Compressor Cool Box power consumption

[Revolvor]

Can anyone give me an idea of how much current a small portable 12v compressor cool box draws? I know they have an on-off duty cycle, so an idea of average Ah' s would be useful.

I've an indelB TB15 - small portable compressor fridge and the book says it draws 35W (just under 3A), doesn't say if thats
average so assume thats when it's on power cycle

Mine draws 2.5 to 3 amps when running.
Usually starts off at 3 amps and reduces a bit when the box temperature falls.

The run time varies massively with set point and ambient temperature. I had it set on -5 in Benidorm and it was running most of the time

Just as well there’s plenty sun to power it when it’s working it’s most

Mine is a medium size and draws 5A when running. How often that is depends on ambient and set temperature and how often opened. If used as a freezer it runs pretty much constantly.
