Residential Refrigerator Electric Only

I am looking to purchase a Fleetwood Storm 32A. It is equipped with a "residential 11 cu.ft. refrigerator. I was told that it is only electric and runs off 2 glass pack batteries which recharge while driving, running the generator or on shore power.
My RVing often takes me into places where there is no shore power and you are not allowed to run the generator. My question is, does anyone have experience with this system? Will the batteries last for 4 to 6 days if not recharged?
  • You may want to consider an optional solar charging package in addition to any additional battery upgrades that may be availlable for that model.
  • No, the battery's wont last 4 to 6 days unless you have a huge bank of them or lots of solar.
    I don't think a resi is ideal for your situation.
