> I... use an [[https://amzn.to/2QCHLoQ|alpicool]] [[[food:refrigeration#compressor_refrigeration|compressor refrigerator]]], in my transit van. It has 200w of panels on the roof and a separate [[https://amzn.to/3411PEp|50Ah battleborn battery]] for powering things in the back (like the refrigerator). The 200w keeps the refrigerator running 24/7 with very little intervention needed. Every once in a while when it's cloudy for several days in a row I have to plug the van in if it's not getting driven a lot. The alternator charges the back when it's running, with a [[https://amzn.to/3yqTqb6|Victron smart relay]] in between the front and the back so that the back can't drain the starter battery when the van isn't running. - hoggernick((https://amzn.to/3yqTqb6)) | > I... use an [[https://amzn.to/2QCHLoQ|alpicool]] [[[food:refrigeration#compressor_refrigeration|compressor refrigerator]]], in my transit van.

| > I have an [[https://amzn.to/3G9YVhk|Alpicool T50]], a [[https://amzn.to/3s3oCuC|200w panel]] on the roof and a [[https://amzn.to/3ubiy6a|Bluetti EB70]]. The panel will charge the EB70 in about 6 hours, but it wouldn't really need to as the T50 will run, as a fridge no freezer, single zone, for about 32 hours on the EB70. Overnight run won't require a full charge. Ambient was in the 70s for that test and it will affect the run time if it's hotter or colder. -- piquat(https://www.reddit.com/r/urbancarliving/comments/se470h/keeping_food_cold_fridge_vs_cooler/huiv8uz/)) |
