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.

What kind of a refrigerator--compressor-based residential refrigerator, or RV absorption refrigerator? What size and type of battery?
The RV absoprtion fridge in propane mode will easily last through the night with most any battery you'd be likely to use, needing maybe 10 Ah, give or take. A residential fridge uses a lot more electricity than the RV fridge in propane mode.
Refrigerator is a 10.5cf Norcold Model N821 12volt 1.6
I will also be using propane.
Battery is 27DC-6 purchased from Wal Mart 2/25/2020
