Residential fridge stored with no electricity access?
So we are thinking about purchasing a new Montana High Country fifth wheel. It has the residential refrigerator. We store our camper at a storage location that has electric available on some spots, but for a higher price each month. We currently have a gas/electric fridge. When getting ready for a trip I just stop by a day or two before we leave and start the fridge on gas. That way it's fully cooled when we load the fridge the night before we leave.
Will 2 31 series deep cycle batteries be enough to at least start the fridge the residential fridge the night before? Want to make sure it's cold and ready for the food when we leave.
I also usually keep our trailer covered, and a small trickle solar panel over the propane tanks to keep my one current batter topped off. I guess I would have to hang a larger unit off the front of the 5th wheel cover.
What are your thoughts and experience? Will two batteries run the fridge for a couple days?
