Has to be a two way fridge, lot of boondocking so residential won’t work.
I suggest you rethink this ! Solar, especially DIY is MUCH more affordable and the benefits of a residential refrigerator are HUGE as your family grows.
Unless you camp in area that have a lot of shade, or camp during the time of year where a furnace needs to run more than just an hour in the AM to knock the chill off, forget propane !
With a 2500W-3000W portable generator, FOUR golf cart batteries and a quality combination inverter, charger, automatic transfer switch and a DC-DC charge for on-the-road charging. Probably have to charge the batteries for an hour or so in the AM and another hour or so before dark.
I appreciate that, however I don’t think solar is something I’m interested in at this time. Not that there isn’t a place for it. We use our rv mainly on weekends only but for one week of vacation a year and the rest of the time it’s unplugged. Not to mention where we go camping, the generator is on 90% of the time to run the air conditioning...if not for us, for the dogs. I don’t think it’s something I want to invest money into at this time.
