Hi all
I have wondered about a particular set up i would like to use and hoped for some input from you experienced folk on that setup
I am travelling in a poptop (Jayco Hawk)thru western Qld next year and at times be stopping for a couple of hours here and there.
Whilst stopping in the heat of the outback i am concerned for the increased temp inside the van and the 3way fridge. I would like to have the fridge run on 12v for a couple of hours while exploring etc, without the need to crawl inside and switch the fridge over to gas for short periods to keep things cool.
I will remove my ‘fridge switch’ and was thinking of the setup to resemble that found in the attached picture where the power for the fridge runs from the batrery in the van via solar controller load with a solar panel on the roof.
This is only for the short stops being made to keep the fridge cold.
Thoughts on the idea or things i should do?
