OT: Price fixing by the oil refineries?

And cost about $5,000.

You would be better advised to pack a lot of Brown Gravy mix. You can trade it for food after 3 or 4 days because that's how long people will take to get sick of canned and dried food.

Schilling is good...

I have no idea. We just pulled wires :-)

Anything made for medical use is very expensive, and the glass door isn't energy efficient. I've seen too many of those stainless and glass medicine coolers while waiting for my doctor at the VA. They ran almost constantly, in a 75º F room. How well do you think they would work when it's over 100º F outside, and almost that hot inside?

The ones I saw had double glass walls and doors, nor did they seem to run all the time as we had to disconnect the room for a short period and when we reconnected they all started and that was very noticeable. I assume that had they been running nearly contentiously we'd have noticed as being a hospital we were aware that it might not be the best plan to disconnect things with out asking first.

It depends on how full they are, and how often they have to be opened. At times, they were opened every few minutes, or had just been restocked by a medical courier from the VA hospital. other factors, like where they are placed can affect how much they run. If they are out in the open, they can get rid of the waste heat a lot easier, but a lot sit against a wall, or in a tight corner with very little free airflow, because there just isn't enough free space to do otherwise. They can be powered down for a couple hours, but will reach the upper thermal limit sooner or later. When running, they are closer to the lower thermal limit in case the power goes out.
