Dometic power cooler…

/ shellerina

This is a compressor cycling on and off in the middle of the night. 120vac mode, using our inverter.

About 4 minutes of the compressor running to keep our food cold. About 4 more Amps draw on the Lithium battery system.

This 2nd fridge also runs on 12vdc; I just need to wire it up. We’ll see which is more efficient. Dometic tech support says it’ll be more efficient in 12 volt mode.

Stay tuned for more details!

12vdc OR 120vac

Addendum 6/4/2024:

As of Tuesday 5:15pm, this unit is now on DC power!

We’ll soon have some comparative power consumption details.
New 12vdc and USB outlets at lower helm. AWG 10 wire and 10amp fuse circuit. Our son Nick helped fish the wire back to the Solar / Lithium bank.
