It may be best to think in temperature difference. The Coleman unit can consume as much as 48W while maintaining a 110 deg F differential, so... if you want to keep your fridge at 40 deg F inside then the unit will draw 48W only if it is 150 deg F outside. Now, I know that its warm down there but come on, 150 deg F! We have done some comparisons between the various competitors I will try to summarize:
