If you are getting an electric refrigerator, I strongly recommend a bigger battery bank. A small Novakool or equivalent refrigerator will pull over 3 amps. In hot weather, it will run close to continuously. You can easily go through 60-70 AHs in 24 hours. You also need to think about the inconvenience of camping in the shade or having a couple of cloudy days. You should have about 200 AH of battery to match the 200 watts of solar.
