Have you used yours in the summer heat? Also, your the one that got me thinking this about this again. I watched you video on your install. I am looking at 8220 and it actually vents all on the inside. Top and bottom. On that one it might be better to seal the outside vents. I am going to give them a call and check it out.

Answer to that is yes, the performance of my Domentic CR1110 is outstanding.Yes in hotter weather is will run a lot and you'll need plenty of battery backup, my second battery is a Interstate 4D RV/Marine unit with plenty of kick to it.
What's not in the video I did is the charging wire upgrade I did later. I installed 4 gauge from the truck all the way to the 4D battery and set up a switch so I could bypass the battery isolator in my camper to keep that 4D battery charged.
Just remember the hotter it get outside the longer the compressor will run, but the results of having cold food to me is well worth what needs to be done to run a compressor refrigerator.
Ctraveler did you have the 8 gauge wire in your lance plug in. That is what I have. I would think that would give a pretty good charge to a couple batteries while traveling. When your ignition is on the batteries where charging all the time before you put in the 4 gauge wire right? So are you using your trucks batteries also to run the fridge when the ignition is off?
