You can still dry camp with a residential, it just takes a bit more planning. With all the talk about gas absorption and fire issues, I feel even better about the residential besides the 300.00 cost compared to the 12-1500.00 price tag.
How would you dry camp with a Residential fridge, as there would be no electricity to run it on. I guess then you would just use a ice cooler?
A residential fridge uses 120 volts. An inverter converts 12 volts from the batteries to 120 volts. Solar panels produce 12 volts to charge the batteries. In case of bad weather a small quiet generator can be used to rapid charge a battery bank via a hi output 40 to 100 amp charger depending on the size of the battery bank. We have a large 22 cubic foot residential fridge. We dry camp routinely....and never have to worry about being level.
