I didn't mean "100% American". I meant unknown Chinese brands that you see in big box stores among more-less known international brands. They come and go. Unknown parts, unknown compressors.
Among "big brands" the energy numbers are still high, and are all over the board, from 300 to 450 KWH a year for 9cf fridge. With "low" 300 KWH it means 80 AH a day including inverter, or 120 AH with other trailer loads, for a conservative user. This means daily generator run, even if you don't need A/C. Will it really be 2 times more efficient than the nameplate says? Don't know. Nobody measured daily AH, only Westend did, in a smaller fridge. I think I'll wait until this picture clears up. Or until I get unlimited power supply, i.e. 120V grid, on the camp.
