  • Counter Top Ice Maker Power Consumption?

    Does anyone have one of these ice makers? I'd like to run one via my inverter while boondocking, but don't have a clue how much power they consume to run a few cycles.

    I have an Igloo brand ice maker. I can get a pic of the label later today when out by the trailer.
    We've had it for 3 or 4 years now. Very handy on hot summer days.

        120 volts, 1.5 amps while making ice. So 180 watts at max consumption.

          So 1.5 amps at 120 volts becomes 15 amps of battery consumption when using an inverter. Thanks much.
