My lipids are low. My excursions were for A YEAR AT A TIME. Very remote areas where a trip to a real store was a 14 hour ordeal. My refrigerator is 18 cubic feet the freezer the same capacity. And energy use is 60 amp hours per day at 24 volts.
Not knocking DC motors at all. But newer 120V refers are very efficient, inverters not as much. I've read that the Samsungs use variable speed motors (DC?), start at low speed with no surge, MSW and PSW inverters OK, etc. And yeah they keep ice cream rock hard.
