    So I searched under mini fridge and mini refrigerator but found nothing

    I read that on average a mini fridge draws 200 to three hundred watts.

    1. Do you agree?

    If yes

    2. Would the bed plug be able to handle it?
    3. Has anyone done this?

    I just dropped some cash on sliders and will be getting the toytec coilovers so it doesn't leave much cash left for a plug in cooler like the ARB.

    Thanks

    Some stuff. Not a lot, just some.
    The bed plug can only handle about 3.2 A. So you should be as long as the truck is running

    The bed plug can handle 100 or 400 watts depending how you set the switch. IT will only run 400 watts at an idle and 100 anytime. That's what my manual says. That plug is pretty much useless for me.
