And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
I have a Frigidaire, that looks just like that. Awesome little machine for the camper. Fill it with water, and it just keeps making ice, if you don't use the ice it melts into the reservoir and recycles until you need it.
When I met my wife she had one outside on the covered outside living area. This was in Georgia. It looked the same but had a different label on it. Just from looking at them I'd figured they were gimmicks... then I started using that one. Oh WOW! That is an amazing piece of technology! I always had ice!!
It broke a month ago, I tried to fix it...we were getting ready to leave and I can't carry something in the RV that doesn't work. When we come to rest someplace with shore power I'll buy another because they work great & ice all the time is what civilization is all about!
I experimented a little too... I plugged it in to a kill-a-watt meter and it used 1.33 kw in a 24 hr period. It would not work on a 450w inverter, it did work with a 700w inverter but the ice maker vibrated...it actually moved! I figured it needed clean power (pure sine wave inverter) not the cheap inverter I was had.
It's worth every penny of the hundred buck you'll spend!
I also have one of those, only in a different color/name and bought at Aldi's. It works pretty well. The only drawback is, as Rick indicated above, the machine does not keep the ice from melting, but it's great for filling up a small lunch sized cooler in the morning before heading off to work or out to the gun club. I'd buy one again, when this one breaks.

ReplyDeleteIt doesn't keep it from melting but when enough melts it just makes more... There was always ice for my cup.
