Overview

The Fridge is a powered appliance that actively cools stored items to 5°C. When connected to the power grid, food and drinks inside will be preserved significantly longer than in regular containers. The fridge has a toggleable door — items are only accessible when open.

How It Works

The fridge cools items only when all three conditions are met:

  • Powered: Connected to an active power source drawing 20 u/s
  • Door closed: Cooling only works when the door is shut
  • Items inside: No cooling cycle runs on an empty fridge

When conditions are met, all items inside are set to 5°C. Cargo is only visible and accessible when the door is open — use the toggle action to open/close.

Accepted Items

  • All food items (Edible_Base)
  • Soda cans (SodaCan_ColorBase)
  • Bottles and liquid containers (Bottle_Base)

LED Indicator

  • Green: Powered and actively cooling
  • Red: Connected but no power
  • Off: Not connected to the grid

Tips

  • At 20 u/s, the fridge consumes a full Solar Panel T1's output. Pair with T2 or a battery.
  • Close the door after loading items — the fridge won't cool with the door open.
  • If power is lost, items resume normal decay rates. Reconnect quickly to preserve food.
  • Use a switch to turn off the fridge when empty to save energy.
