You are absolutely WRONG. RV Absorbsion refers that have a 12 volt Heat Element are for in Transit only power. The 12 volt heat element will drain any battery bank in less than 8 hours. There is a difference between ABSORBSION 12 volt and a 120/12 volt RV compressor type unit. Doug Below from the Dometic manual.
Wow, that's what I said. It's way too inefficient to be a realistic option for full time 12v operation off grid.
