I'm wondering if I can plug a 5.0 chest freezer into this with a light load on the other outlet (light) ..

Depends on your freezer's amperage. This unit handles 15 amps so if your freezer is say 10 amps, you have 5 more amps left to plug in the other side

Yes. Some long as the combined load does not exceed the amperage rating of the circuit which is typically 15 amps. The freezer has a start-up amperage requirement that is higher than the run amperage. In your case start-up amps is probably 6 to 9 amps with a run amp at approx. 4 amps. Therefore, whatever you plug in on the other side of the Ziotek must be less than 6 amps draw.

I have a freezer and a small fridge hooked to it. Just make sure that the outlet that you use has a breaker rated at the combined amperage of the two items. The adapter will handle it if the line can handle it.

I don't see why not, the charger will not power the refrigerator by itself though.

We only have ours hooked up to the freezer, I assume you would need to buy another unit!

Was wired for US 130v current/outlet, however with a proper adapter it might work fine. Chiller operation is approximately 30-40 minutes for a batch of ice cream with a refrigerated custard base. Hope it works for you- wonderful machine

With this wattage you could do a couple of appliances. Like you could keep a fridge and/or freezer going. But you definitely need a bigger unit if you are looking to hook to the house for backup power.

There are two inputs that this can switch between. One input is a 100amp feed from your breaker panel, the other is a 60amp input you wire to a generator input of your selection. Typically, you'd then wire a single output to a sub panel. Bear in mind you'll only ever have 60 or 100 amps coming into that sub panel, which for most people is adequate for "critical" loads ( fridge, freezer, well pump). I have mine feeding a 20 space breaker panel. There are no "circuits" in this unit as there are in many transfer switches that combine a switch like this with a loads panel. This is just the switch. Consult a professional electrician for wiring it together.

No, this is not a surge protector. Freezers should be on there own separate circuit. Same with ovens or any heavy duty load...

You absolutely can control a chest freezer. I have one on a freezer that I built for myself and have done the same thing for another friend. It works great. I have another one that I use for heating and cooling on a 15 gallon conical. They can only handle 10 amps so keep that in mind.

Theoretically yes it should be possible to use your 8.5 watt tecnolamp bulbs in a freezer .led light bulbs technically are not limited to cold temperature use like most compact fluorescents are the only issue is if the low voltage rectifier circuit in the base of the lamp it may not work well in sub freezing temperatures I have read some limited technical specs and customer reviews about certain styles types or brands of l.e.d. bulbs not lighting or flickering in cold temps below 32 degrees but I do think this rare especially considering there are industrial and commercial light fixture manufacturers that produce flourescent style light bars that replace the flourescent tubes with individual l.e.d. elements and are designed to go in commercial grocery freezers and the like like the dairy freezer in most commercial grocery stores.I can't say anything more than just try and see if it works. I haven't had my l.e.d. bulbs long enough to give you a definitive answer .

Yes, it can charge by plugging-in to the wall. I have gotten a smaller size fridge/freezer to use with this system. I think a full-size would tend to use your charge-up pretty quickly.

dont know just HOW this could work. Unless you just wanted to know how warm it was in the milkhouse. How could you connect the two? Better ask an electrician before attempting this venture.

Any good 3000w inverter can handle fridge and freezer, this one will do for sure

That is accurate. I had our unit plugged into the bottom outlet in our basement. I was able to use the top outlet without any trouble.

Hi Terry, The answer is "no"... unless you plan un using Battery Back-up. If you have a battery bank, then maybe. Your really need a battery bank and around 500W panel array (or more) if you want to run a fridge/freezer 24 hours / day.... and if you get several days in a row of no sunshine... it could be tricky.

It says it can. I use them in our Freezers at -5 degrees. Easy installation, great coverage and our IT dept likes the management software. POE so no need for power.

You may but at your own risk. I believe that may go against your local electrical code since you are mixing two different voltages in the same j box. Plus I think the power supply is DC. I think the best way is to have a power receptacle that is controlled by a wall switch.

this will handle both. keep in mind each appliance draws from the generator until they reach the set temperature. the fridge and freezer can be unplugged as they are not using power. if you plug in your fridge and freezer a couple of times a day you should be fine. I run my fridge in the morning for a couple hours or until it reaches set temp. again about 2 hours before bedtime.
