Running Dometic Refrigerator with an inverter
My Dometic Refrigerator doesn't run on gas, can I run it off an inverter while traveling? How many watts will I need to run it?

That's exactly how I run my fridge... When I'm on the road my LPG bottle is OFF.
IMHO this is the easiest, safest, and most efficient (in terms of my resources) way to run the fridge while driving.
I have 2ga wires run from my (180A) alternator to the camper, battery and the ProSine inverter easily powers the fridge. When I get to wherever I am going my beer is cold and the batteries are 100% SOC.
The AC heating element draws ~360W.
