Residentail refrigerators in motorhomes

Some of the naysayers do not understand that a modern MH, especially the DP's) have lots of current draws. There are multiple TV's, sound systems, Satellite units and a host of phantom draws. Even with a propane fridge dry camping will typically require running your generator. Adding a residential fridge will just extend the running time of the genie. Maybe 60 to 90 minutes extra. If you are just staying overnight or even 24 hours without power the fridge will run off your batteries without any problems. If you are fence sitting on whether to go electric or maybe Amish just PM one of the thousands who has done the conversion. Read the excellent on line posts from those who have done the conversion. You may need to join one of the forums that are dedicated to one MH mfr. Try the IRV Monaco forum for Diplomat Don's excellent write ups. You will not find one person who was sorry he went electric. Our Monaco came from the factory with a residential unit and I almost did not buy it for that reason. How dumb of me!! I can think of only one small negative. When you go to sell the unit some potential buyers may not understand that this is a plus and walk away. This will change over the next few years as more units are coming from the factory with residential fridges installed.
Even Ray Chez will eventually see the light!
