A properly set up rig will have 600 to 800 AH of batteries. My 21 CF refer requires 8 amps when running so in half a day with a 67% duty cycle it will use 64 AH.

I put mine on it's own 500 AH battery bank witk a 1000W PSW inverter with 300W of solar. My house battery bank needs 2 hours/day of generator time so it's not the refer that needs the generator.
