      A well insulated freezer that never opens would use very little power once it’s already cooled. The impressive bit of this comic would be large thin pieces of glass providing enough insulation.

        Na those are actually screens, like the weird ones popping up in gas stations that show you ads instead of what’s in the fridge

      A heat pump for a freezer might have a COP of 4 or 5 turning that 15A into 4 or 5 times more cooling

      Maybe it’s super efficient insulating material and the electricity is only needed to maintain the temperature.
