Bob - Well, the sticker on the inside of the fridge says it takes 8.3A at 120VAC, which is 996 watts. I presume that is normal operation (not starting), but I haven't measured it. I haven't tested running it on a genny, as I don't even have one, but I have thought about getting one for earthquake preparedness. I believe the Honda 1000 is 1000W peak, and 900W rated, so the fridge would take it to the max during normal operation. But I'm not sure the fridge could even get started without making the genny die.
