Continuous updates for alpicool cf55
I will be continuously updating this review. I took a chance ordering this cause if the price and want to help others not spend a grand if I can.

received the fridge and the manual is extremely small but states to place in upright position and do not turn on for 6 hours. I left it overnight.

plugged in the fridge and it turned right on. room was 72 and I set it for 34 and it was down to temp in under 30 minutes. at this point I have it on max cooling(normal) and I'm going to play around a little but it appears that the temp range is 27-38 which is a little much if you ask me. I will continue to run tests today and update later on.
update:
have it set for 34 still and the room is 76. it seems to have narrowed the temperature range for the better. turns on at 38 degrees and shuts off at 34. it will reach 39 for a minute or 2 and then turns off at 34. it does float down to 31 or 32 degrees but I'm okay with that. it takes 7-8 minutes of run time to cool back down and stays off for 17-18 minutes. your looking at running for 15 minutes an hour and that's not bad at all.
these tests were run inside a house not in sunlight. I do not have the maps or watts its pulling while its running.
