Now we're really rollin'...what temp do you all suggest keeping meat at? 0?

Pretty sure 0* is what Dr. Savell and Dr. Riley at Aggie Meat say.

For those that want to see what this thing looks like compared to a normal sized refrigerator/freezer, here's a pic. And for proof that I still am a dumbass even though it now works, a pic showing there are no shelves inside. No clue what I'm going to do about that one...

Seriously, free standing shelves. Will also make it easy to clean.

Thank you! I had seen the first batch but not the second link.

Yes. One of the weirdest parts about this is the freezer looks like it's never been used. Very clean and the parts don't seem like they've been put together before. Inside looks brand new.

Maybe the seller bought it damaged and tried to fix it? Who was selling it?

Yah, maybe the previous owner had bought it at an auction and posted similar questions to a lesser and more unknowledgeable college sports internet message board. They probably didn't know near as much about voltages, prongs, and refrigerant.

No shelves needed. Just open the doors and tell the deer to walk in.

I don't know. I've seen a lot of movies about freezers like this


The story isn't that [DeSantis] "couldn't win" the primary. The story is that an overwhelming majority of our population is heinously stupid. 50% of them vote for communists. 75% of the remaining 50% vote for Trump, who cant win. When the majority of the opposition party insists on voting for an opposition candidate who can't win, you get exactly the government you deserve. - Well Endowed Ag

Finally figured out the organization and am going to load it up tomorrow. Haven't gotten the first electric bill which is a little scary but she's been holding temp for a few weeks.

We keep the freezers in our warehouse in a range between -10 and 0. That's normal and what most freezers storage places hold. Agreed it needs to stay below 0 for best life of product. Great purchase OP. Little jealous here.

First full month bill and it's definitely higher than previous months but it's also getting hotter out so can't really identify how much more it is since we weren't here last year. 2,044 kWh equating to $268 for 3/24 - 4/24. I'm OK with that. Was really worried about some crazy ass number. Will post pic when I get everything organized. Trying to find some bins that will fit on the racks that I can keep everything organized.

I'd strongly recommend not doing what I did though, and actually call them before buying to make sure it works.

It is 220v with a full load rating or 8 amps. That means it is 1700W to start the motor. The motor is 1.2 hp, so should use about 900W running. If the unit ran the motor non-stop you are around $65/month. It should run much less than that especially if the door stays closed most of the time.

Math:
900 Watts * 24 hours * 30 days = 648,00 W hrs. = 648 kW Hrs.

648 * 10 cents per kW hr = $64.80

The thing should run much less than 100% so reality way is less than $65.

Excuse me, but the OP started this thread without the need for logic and math!

this is awesome. glad to see the conclusion of the story after seeing the initial post last month.

Welp...$517 electric bill this month. That's definitely a record and only getting hotter. Going to have to figure out how to conserve elsewhere I guess!

Sounds like you need to kill one more deer or something and sell some meet you offset

If the family gets too hot in the house (which is set to 80) they can cool off in the freezer.

Forgot to update the thread to what happened a couple weeks ago. Have a feeling this will be an ongoing thread of stupid **** happening.

I went out and the freezer was at 30 and would shut off every once in a while for 10 minutes or so, which let it get up to nearly 60 degrees. I called the freezer guy that had come out to fill up with freon and fix the leak, and he came over that afternoon. Said everything was checking out correctly and the freezer was perfect. New thermostat, no leaks in freon, no ice buildup or anything, other than a tiny bit of ice on one of the metal pipes on top of the freezer. Freezer was, of course, well below freezing and working fine while he was there. He left and told me he'd check in with me the next day. It got up to nearly 60 again and I was worried about my meat (luckily hadn't transferred everything over to this yet). He came back out and had done some research/talked to his boss. He facetimed his boss and showed him the ice and his boss immediately said there was too much freon, and to slowly let it out until that ice goes away. Sure enough, he let out quite a bit of freon and temp of freezer started dropping immediately. When he filled up the freon it was cold outside and then when it got hot something happens and it expands I guess which made it too full. The freezer was running perfectly but it was telling itself that it was at the correct temp when it was much higher. Problem solved and has been great ever since.

Also found out that it has 3 times each day that it goes into a defrost mode for about 10 minutes.
