Running refrigerator on house battery, How long?
How long can I run a 10cf refrigerator on house battery? Not hooked to shore power and need refrigerator only overnight. Battery is new 3/15/2020. Will be using no other electricity. Thank you.

Depends if you are in Iowa in November or Florida in July.
But you should be OK if you drive the vehicle daily.
If you had TWO 6V golf cart batteries (one marine/RV dual purpose 12V battery will not make it) and a modern highly efficient refrigerator and a good pure sine wave inverter, I would concur. Also "overnight" implies at least 8 hours of no one opening the door !
Remember, most vehicle charging system will NOT properly fully recharge house batteries without a DC-DC charger.
