[QUOTE="KateLovesPurple, post: 515013, member: 743"] Just the fridge alone you should have plenty of time on the battery but it very much depends on what else you are running on the battery at the same time as to how long it will last. The Waeco fridge has a low voltage cut off too which probably means you won't get as long as you might theoretically. What else are you running on the 12v when you are stopped? And for how long? Add up all the consumption and you will see how long you should get out of your 110Ah battery. You could also use a current meter (clamp style would be easier) to see how much current is being pulled when it is all switched on too, to help you calculations. Do you have a mains hookup as well? If you don't, it would be well worth investing in a set up for when you are parked up on a camp site, also perhaps think about a solar panel to help keep things topped up when there is no mains available. (Before dark obviously! Before someone comes on and says it's no use at night!!! :roll: ) [/QUOTE]
