For those that are interested my fridge is an Electrolux RD 2000.  A search
on Google finds nothing though.

Cheers

I used to have a small "drinks" fridge that used a heat pump (not Peltier)
and it was totally silent.  It had a heating coil 'round the back of the
fridge to get the coolant moving and worked very well for years.  Then it
sprung a leak and lost all it's coolant - what a smell!
As for the scan model, this heats as well as cools.  The only single
technology that can do this is Peltier (which also accounts for the high
power consumption and the fact it runs from 12V) and (not saying there isn't
any) but I have never seen a Peltier Heat Pump fridge / cool-box that
doesn't use a fan - them 48 watts (plus the heat taken out of the inside of
the fridge) have got to go somewhere... :o)

I know a guy who does pub refurbishments, and "acquired" a fridge from him
that the brewery didn't like cause it didn't have a light.  It sits in the
corner of my lounge and is SILENT.  It is my understanding that these type
of fridges are silent due to being designed for pubs where there are 4 or 5
of these behind the bar.  Could become V annoying if not!
