"but if there is an engine battery and house batteries, maybe he could put the rig's house on the engine battery for 15 minutes or so, while the charger gets through that phase."
My concern is not limited to the fridge's control board, and such. I also do not like the idea of hitting the batteries so hard from the get go. Perhaps there is no problem with doing so, but I prefer the 'soft start' approach, rather than suddenly hitting them with say 15.8v, right out of the gate. So either way, I would prefer not to subject the bank to that 15 minutes of higher (+1v) voltage.
