Mellisa,
My
EggCamper has the Norcold DC0040, compressor fridge. 2.7-1.35 amps, according to the Thetford (Norcold) specs. When mine runs, it's drawing the 2.7 amps. I suspect the second number (1.35) is the average draw when considering a 50% duty cycle (on and off time).
It is small, but works well. There is some vibration noise from the compressor, and I'm now trying to mitigate some of it by mounting it on a rubber pad. It's not obnoxious, but is noticeable. Post from another
EggCamper owner mentioned a different model # in his unit, and he also talked about trying to reduce the compressor noise. Overall, I like the fridge.
