This is not correct. Modern refrigerators are designed to
run nearly all the time. Turns out it uses less energy to
use a small motor and run it constantly than to use a large
motor and turn it on and off. If running all the time is
the only problem, get used to it. But using the Kill a Watt
is a good idea.


I challenge you to offer up a citation for that; it makes no sense. Running
all the time is one sign of a coolant leak.
