Re: [VAL] 12 volt refridg



    Joel and others,

    For what it's worth, we have refrigeration on our sailboat and typically
get about five days use from two group 27's dedicated to the compressor
(Adler Barbour brand without keel cooler) by using a trick Marilyn came up
with.  We simply turn the unit off at night and back on again in the
morning.  This I might add during the summer here in SoCal.

    This is just food for thought (or is that food for thaw?  sorry) and I'm
not suggesting the same for Airstream owners but maybe some variation of our
trick might be useful some time.
