watts are a unit of power, irrespective of voltage- but the less the 
volts, the more amps, which is why they went to 12v from 6 to allow 
thinner wiring from the battery.  Your ammonia fridge may be only 50 
watts, but it's 4 amps to your battery.

  Inverters are rated in AC watts. 1800/110=16 (Amps), roughly the same as
  your standard 15 amp home receptacle.
