Re: Refrigeration; dc vs. propane

 

Yeah, I find that to be true. I generally try to conserve electricity, but when I started doing cost per distance comparisons between a small gas motor and a small electric motor for a commuting scooter, I realized just how reasonable the grid really is.

Of course, I'm also biased as there's no way to refill a gas tank with my hobbist's solar panel...

In general, I've had pretty good luck running inverters for smaller appliances when needed, but a full size fridge? Is that what we're talking about, or is this a smaller unit, like ctyankee says, in a boat, etc.?
