Do I appear silly to want to protect my $20 worth of condiments with an expensive upgrade. Guilty, if you like. The RV lifestyle is not about frugal financial decisions.
I just want to know if there is a reasonable way to leave my fridge on for a few days while in storage. Obviously there are other benefits to adding solar (dry camping, glogal warming, etc.), but I didn't see the need to make a complete case for it.
That seems to answer the question well, hell yes!
Use the info in this tread as a guide and measure your storage energy needs. Keep in mind that LA gets 1/2 the solar in winter than summer on flat panels. Design for winter? spring? Decide to go hog wild or just supplement auto generator use.
