Eric, Sorry, but I'm just now noticing what you typed in your previous message... >--- vw4x4@fyi.net wrote: >> The fridge I have clearly state, 120v 1 amp. Sonyo >> brand... In your original post I thought you were saying that the Sanyo only needed 1A at 12V Sure, your fridge draws 1A at 120v, this is about 10A at 12V, and is roughly 3 to 4 times, or more, the current draw of the ARB fridge at 12V (impossible to say for sure, depending on testing conditions, etc.) All the same, it appears that the Sanyo is going to run the battery down significantly faster than the ARB fridge. In this case, stick with the ARB for 12V cooling, and longer battery life... Sorry I didn't catch that before my last post. Have a nice weekend! Andrew |
