Our Suites came equipped with a residential Whirlpool fridge. We LOVE it, we like the size and the extra storage of food it affords us. Your sales guy is pretty close to right on the battery time. We have 2 6 volt batteries and a 1,000 watt inverter that handles the fridge quit well.
On a side note (not to hi-jack this thread) I installed 3 100 watt solar panels on the roof with a MPPT charger, in sunny conditions I don't "need" a generator at all. Too many cloudy days in a row and all bets are off especially here in Wisconsin, :B
I would say go for the residential, it cools faster, holds more and "looks" nicer! :C

So, would just plugging the RV back into the TV allow you to use the TV batteries if need be? Are you then using batteries from the RV and TT?

We do a lot of dry camping and have not had an issue with our residential refrigerator. Last summer we camped for 5 days in the Apgar campground in Glacier National Park - no hook-ups, generator restriction to a couple of hours in the morning and couple in the evening. They do allow 2 hours in the mid-day, but we were never there. And we weren't always there in the evening. Anyway, we had no trouble with the batteries being low.
We have 6 12-volt group 31 AGM house batteries and a 2800 watt inverter.

But, you did run the generator at least once or twice a day?
