Is i be doing it right?
>>
kinda, i might throw in a box of baking soda for a few hours then put it in the sun and repeat, baking soda desiccate for fridges is common and recharging in the sun is easy.

Shockingly joke post about using a candle to defrost a mini fridge turned out supper effective.
It let me quickly cut the big ice brick into chunks that then separated cleanly....
My BS payed off.

I would finish this but some little fucking dangaling bit is stuck in the ice block off of the ice box. It's clearly some little plastic bit but I'm not willing to break it off to just get the ice out. It's 6am so I'll just have to let it go over night and clean it up in the morning. I really want to know what dangaly bit is, I have no clue what function it might have.
PS this is the mini fridge in the family man cave at home, so we go into maybe a few times a year when we come home from around the state.

Pull all freezer contents and put them in a tote. Unplug fridge/freezer and put a pan of hot water in there to quickly bring up the temp. Start pulling chunks of ice out asap and get it all cleaned up and plugged back in and re-stocked with the frozen goods.

why would your tea light be frozen in the first place

Hot water, or a water hose if it'll reach. The faster you can get it dry and closed back up the better
