Run reffer on electric or propane when home?
Just wondering which way is cheaper? I use the fridge a lot on propane camping and I even use it to camp in the winter where I snowmobile so the furnace gets used also. With all that use in 3 year...

Well if I use a 1/4 gall a day 20 gallons would last 80 days for 60 bucks.
If electric cost 75 cents a day times 80 days that would be 60 bucks also.
I guess it is close in my case. Course these are just estimates.
But you need to factor in the electric used for battery charge cause without charging battery you will lose battery voltage due to propane operation.
So it would cost you the propane plus the electric for charging battery or just electric and no battery charging cause converter would supply the needed dc for fridge controls
