When I say check the temp, I mean the temp of the air temp of the box, and not the heate... I mean blower. I'd take a glass of room temp water, stick it in the box too. Check the temp of the air and water after 8 hours, see if they've gone up.

Your Danby may be cooling the beer fine, and if so, the blower isn't warming your beer, but it will be making the Danby run harder. The result is you'll be paying more on your electric bill to run the high juice blower plus the extra juice your kegerater needs to keep cool. So as long as you can afford it, and you hate Al Gore too, it's probably no big deal.

Sometimes when I reflect back on all the beer I drink I feel ashamed.
Then I look into the glass and think about the workers in the brewery
and all of their hopes and dreams. If I didn't drink this beer, they might
be out of work and their dreams would be shattered. Then I say to myself,
"It is better that I drink this beer and let their dreams come true than
be selfish and worry about my liver."
