Difference between Rated Input and Rated Current?
I'm looking at buying a small fridge and may want to run it off batteries and inverter from time to time. I am confused with the two indicators on the label.
It is a 240vac fridge.
The first measurement says "Rated Input: 80W";
The next measurement says "Rated Current: 0.65A";
Which figure should I use for calculating the load on my batteries over time?
Cheers!
