Fridge Temp Control Question
I have a Dometic S630 absorption fridge from 1991. AFAIK newer ones work the same way. Apparently the freezer cools down and then eventually the fridge cools down to its proper temp range just above...

BFL13,
325 watts is what mine draws. I hope you will be pleased with the results.
The Dometic in my ride is a 6 cubic foot.
I could not find the 300w rated part for mine on Amazon, but figure this 325w rated part will be close enough. The rated 325w must vary in real life anyway depending on what the "120v" is at.
Doug, you are right, but it was worth it for me to do the 120v powered 12v trick. It worked ok in winter ambients where the fridge part was already almost in the proper temp range, but not now in summer. Can't get it down past 9C/48F and moving the thermistor did nothing as was predicted. the freezer part is cold enough though. I need to drill a hole in the freezer floor to let some cold down into the fridge! (Not!)
