Gerald,
 There are 12VDC RV fridges that use a compressor. They draw about 5
amps of current, far less than a 3-way absorbtion type of unit, and run
about 50% of the time. That means 60 AH/day, requiring at least 2 solar
panels and a bank of golf cart batteries; quite doable in a MH, a bit
more problematic in a trailer.

                                 <<Jim>>
