Curious if this would have any noticeable energy savings. Basically thinking of taking old semi-disposable plastic containers (the ones that like deli meat, butter, etc come in), freezing them outdoors, and letting them defrost (absorb heat) in the fridge/freezer. Basically back to the “ice box” model.
Anybody doing that and/or have any results to share? Mostly curious if it would be worth the effort.
Ah yeah, $30/yr doesn’t seem like a lot from a strictly money-saving perspective. I guess if electricity here was more expensive (it’s getting there lol) or if I was on a tighter power budget (e.g. offgrid PV + battery), it might be worth it. Maybe I’ll just save that trick for when the power’s out.
