Nice work on the Whirlpool installation. It looks like the factory put it in.
You guys can discuss the details. I'd just say again, get more inverter than what you think you need and use large cables between batteries and inverter. If your battery banks can support it, a large inverter will do more for you than just power the fridge. These newer quality PS inverters are very efficient, using less than an amp in standby or have an auto shutdown feature. Paired with solar, it makes for a great system.
