Residential Fridge
We are FT and just finished the AL CAN. After washing the rig in Fairbanks we got the dreaded "temp switch fail". We also had a new cooling unit installed 8 months ago. I would like some feedback from...

We installed a Samsung RF197 last November and really love it. We have four 6 volt house batteries and 375 watts of solar. I added a separate 600 watt PSW inverter dedicated to the refrigerator which allows to shut down the main inverter and save power. We dry camp a total of about 8-10 weeks a year. I do run the generator for about an hour in the am when we're making coffee, toast and using the microwave. This is usually enough to get through the bulk mode in charging. If we didn't watch TV in the evenings our solar would just keep up with demand. I usually run the genset for an hour in the evenings to top off the batteries. I would recommend that you add 400 watts of solar and a good MPPT controller to help with your power demands.
Go for it, you'll really like the size and convenience.
