Battery Life With a Residential Fridge
Like many RVers I decided to replace my troublesome rv fridge with a residential. I have read a lot of posts here and other places about doing so and battery life when camping without shore power. So...

I agree. I have been good with all my power usage and the 2 batteries currently installed in the trailer. By adding the small residential fridge I introduced a variable into the equation. Hence my stress test. If I add the fridge and another battery, that helps me close the gaps on this variable. I have a 12v lcd tv and the normal 12v draws already installed and usually have about 2-3hrs per day of gen time. No solar
Theoretically if I add the battery with the fridge the very few times I dry camp the gen time should only increase by the amount of time my converter take to charge the extra battery. My goal was to be sure I can make it through the night which I am sure can easily be accomplished.
