I know there are variables involved here on the manufacturer of the fridge, battery etc... But for those of you that have one assuming the standard group 27 battery the dealer gives you - how long can...

I would suggest upgrading your charger to a Progressive Dynamics that has the option to bulk charge anytime. Even if your batteries drop down 30-40% a standard WFCO won't bulk at more than 13.6-8. You waste a lot of time trying to quick charge at 13.6.
Not sure who this was directed to, but in my case, putting in a PD converter would be not only a huge down grade and not very smart, it would also be nearly impossible without redoing much of the electrical system.
Our RV has the Xantrex Freedom XC 2000 Inverter/charger unit. It provides really, really good multi-stage battery charging; Every bit as good if not better than what any PD converter would provide.
Although I do agree that for a lot of RVs, a Progressive Dynamics converter with multi-stage charging is a great upgrade over what it comes with from the factory. I did that upgrade on a previous RV we used to own.
