In have just purchased a Weaco 52 litre 12 volt fridge to do the occassional 6 night trip to Moreton Island. The Weaco has a usage of between 1.5 - 2.5 amps per hour after it has reached the selected operating temperature. I have been advised to look at purcahsing a Blue Apple - Thumper heavy industrial powerpack which is rated up to 1200 amps to power the fridge. I have been quoted $700 from the local Opposite Lock outlet in Brisbane. Does anyone have any experience with Power Packs that may guide my deliberations. As there is little drive time on Moreton Island the recharging of the battery from the Pathfinder will not cover my power needs. I expect that I would purchase a 240 volt 6 amp charger and have the serice station at Bulwer re-charge the power pack overnight. Any advice would be appreciated.
