The 120v fridge sucks battery down constantly, so you have to be on top of battery monitoring constantly.
You can get by with a generator and no solar as long as that fits in with off-grid campground gen hours, or quiet times if no posted hours. You can get by with solar and no gen if the sun shines enough.
The problem is anxiety to always have enough battery no matter what. BTDT (but in a smaller way with the 120v fridge in the TC)
IMO go for the propane fridge and not have that anxiety. Who needs that? :(
BTW there is a better sort of propane fridge you could get--forget name--they cost more, but sounds like that is not a problem :)
