    The Official Dometic CFX Fridge Feed!

    No necessarily. I was using a recommended 20% lowest state of charge as one of the assumptions in the calculations I provided. Also, the assumptions provided were for this 100AH AGM being a secondary battery. If a starter battery, SOC limit would be much higher since you wouldn't want a no...

    The Dometic CFX3 Mega Thread

    We're received a few questions related to how the CFX3 accessories, specifically slides, and covers, compare, or are interchangeable between the product lines. For sliders, the CFX sliders will work for the CFX3 as long as you don't jump sizes. Given this, you shouldn't have to upgrade your...

    The Official Dometic CFX Fridge Feed!

    I posted up a bunch of information on energy consumption in our CFX3 Mega Thread. Given that info you should be able to: run a 100L CFX3 for about 48 hours if you have the internal temp set to 39 F and it's 90 F outside run a 100L CFX3 for about 17 hours if you have the internal temp set to...

    The Official Dometic CFX Fridge Feed!

    It really depends on the space you have available. We just introduced our CFX3 line and there are sizes available from 35L to 100L. If you are looking for ice making the CFX3 55IM would be the ticket. All of these can run on AC and DC. DC with dedicated wiring would be best in your vehicle...

    The Official Dometic CFX Fridge Feed!

    Thanks for the additional info. Do you happen to have anything else on that dedicated wiring when you have your fridge plugged in and running? Any other large loads placed on the overall system that you might be aware of? What you are describing that the app is reporting is somewhat unusual...

    Suggestions for wiring up Dometic

    I posted this over in our CFX thread but wanted to post it here as it might provide some help. There are two plug types we can work with: standard DC plug 2-pin threaded (this one helps to prevent the socket from coming out during travel and shutting your fridge off) We offer the Dometic...

    The Official Dometic CFX Fridge Feed!

    When you say that you have 13.9V where the cord connect matches what do you mean? Is that at the plug where your CFX plugs in? If so do you have custom wiring coming directly from your battery to the outlet? The reason I ask is that with or without custom wiring it's common to see a voltage...

    New Dometic CFX3 Coolers

    One of the more complicated questions we get is relative to how our battery protection system works. When does it know to shut off the cooler before you get to a no start situation (if you are using a single battery for your vehicle)? Even if you are using a secondary battery the same...

    New Dometic CFX3 Coolers

    Over a lot of conversations, we've heard a lot of questions related to fridge use and energy consumption; in particular, how long can you run a fridge without ending up in a "no-start" situation. There are a lot of factors involved in determining this: type of battery or batteries, condition of...

    New Dometic CFX3 Coolers

    I'd shared some noise level specs in another thread and thought they'd be useful here as well. These are the dB levels on all the models in our CFX3 line when they are running: CFX3 35 44 dB CFX3 45 47 dB CFX3 55IM 48 dB CFX3 75DZ 50 dB CFX3 95DZ 50 dB CFX3 100 50 dB To compare: 60 dB would...
