We really need to know more about the expected usage. And I assume you turn the fridge off while stored between adventures. Since you mention generator charging it would help to know what the actual charging voltage is and the hours per day spent charging.
Right on on shore power my solar charge controller is showing 12.70v and the inverter monitor is showing 12.7 input as well. In sunlight the solar panels are usually pushing ~18v to the controller; wattage varies, a lot. Hours per day would be a research project given sunlight variations.
Yes, rig not in use, refer not in use.
I use very little juice. The refer is my big consumer. I may run a fan at night, and use my computer a couple of hours a day and a light or two although I'm very frugal with that. I don't watch TV or listen to a radio. Furnace fan is a big consumer in the winter if really cold.
