 > Dometic CFX 35 12V compressor fridge, 105 amp deep cycle house battery with manual switch run off the van battery. The fridge will run 2 days off the house battery before charging. I have a 100 watt portable solar panel which depends on where you are and amount of sun etc. In Arizona it mostly keeps the fridge running full time but in Canada the solar is spotty at best. - hobitarm((https://www.reddit.com/r/vandwellers/comments/dzt9df/questions_for_minivandwellers/f8up5p7/)) > Dometic CFX 35 12V compressor fridge, 105 amp deep cycle house battery with manual switch run off the van battery.

 > In summer with 2x150 watt flexible panels I was getting 16amps, and it even went up to 22 amps for a while which everyone I spoke to was surprised at such high numbers. Now, in sunny days I'm getting 2 amps for about 2-3 hours a day. Whereas summer was 7 hours of peak sun and a few more of non peak. My panels are flat. Flexible. No air gap underneath. - crap_allnamesrtaken((https://www.reddit.com/r/vandwellers/comments/7eexfc/solar_how_much_wattage_do_you_run_actual_output/dq5ye14/)) > In summer with 2x150 watt flexible panels I was getting 16amps, and it even went up to 22 amps for a while which everyone I spoke to was surprised at such high numbers.
