I believe it does, if I'm not mistaking you'd have to run the crock pot for 70 hours to equal the power the oven uses in 1-2 hours.

I suppose it depends on what you are comparing it to. All slow cookers are surely more efficient than my 1940s Wedgewood but a solar oven would beat a slow cooker.

Does a full oven take less energy to maintain temperature than an empty one?

No. Consant temperature maintenance depands on the heat energy leakage through the wall of the oven, and that is determined by the local temperatures just outside and inside the wall. What is in the middle of the oven away from the wall is immaterial. If the oven is full, it will take longer to cool down to room temperature than will an empty oven, but that is different from a constant temperature situation.

CAN YOU COOK A PRECOOKED HAM IN A CROCK POT?

You can, but I don't see why you would want to cook a precooked ham. If you want to add more flavor, try a glaze and baking it in the oven rather than cooking it again. Also, by cooking it in liquid in a crock pot you may lose some of the smoked flavour.
