Mess-Freezer Power Usage with Kill-A-Watt Meter

I wanted to know how much electricity my freezer Frigidaire (model: FFU14F5HWE would use). So I set my Kill-A-Watt meter, and run the freezer for a couple of days. While the compressor is running, it consumes about 1.7 amps and 115 watts at 120VAC. Most of the time, the compressor is not operating, it is difficult to estimate the energy consumption without the use of a meter. After 160 hours, the freezer to use electricity from $ 1.26 to a price of $ 0.161/kWh which is equivalent 7.84kWh. AfterPostage meters Kill-A-Watt $ 68 a freezer to make it work for the year, $ 5.56 per month, or $ 0.18 per day. Also, if you open the door, the light bulb uses 25 watt. I mistakenly thought this would consume much electricity the freezer, but $ 5 a month does not seem to be much of a burden. Sure, we opened the freezer, which often are open and we are never likely that during this measurement of power consumption. The cost could be fuller than when the freezer is for food,or, we opened the door more often. If not, is a very energy efficient and great. Shot in a Canon VIXIA HF11 HD Camcorder.
