My friend recently took a few days away from his 2016 Bounder with a residential fridge and ask me to monitor the voltage discharged on his batteries while gone. 18-24 hrs max without having to start the generator. For this reason Ive decided to repair my norcold when that day comes. Is that the norm?
Yes, 18-24 hours.
2*6V batteries have mere 112 AH of usable charge.
Residential fridge with inverter needs 70-110 AH per 24 hours depending on model and weather.
Keep in mind that running generator every other day for a few hours won't bring the batteries back to Full.
