We do not do "camping". The 5th wheel is our "hotel" with as many creature comforts as possible. We are disinterested in going into the forests or trails. We prefer paved and immaculate RV resort style traveling. We travel from "pedestal-to-pedestal", with drive times of 8-10 hours.
Upon removing the Nocold we went down in weight; our 18 cu. ft. residential reefer weighs 30 pounds less than the 12 cu. ft. Norcold.
The Reefer is on 24/7 while traveling, set at 0f for the freezer and 34f for the reefer portion. With a 2000 watt pure sine wave inverter and 2 moderately sized 12v Group 24 RV/Marine type batteries, at the end of the travel day (always going from-to full hookups) the final battery voltage before connecting to A/C is about 12.5 to 12.7 volts.
