Just 10 1 watt LED lights and a 40" LED. Would leave the genset on around dinner and before bedtime to use the 8000btu heat/cool. Thanks for the info

So it looks like I will have about 4 + inch space between back of the fridge and the wall. Pic for reference of fridge location. Would you put a vent up high and low through the wall?
TIA,
Kevin

That seems reasonable. Have a vent down low blow the fridge and a vent up high above the fridge with flow around the back. Another option would be to have a vent on the top and bottom of the rear side as the compressor on the TF 65 is on the top back.

Thanks maybe even run a small solar fan?
Kevin

The fan controller on the compressor can easily run another small computer fan 90 or 120 mm. Simply wire it in parallel with the condenser fan thats already on the fridge and use it to vent the compartment.

Are you happy with it? looking at the 65 and 130 AC/DC, but leaning towards the 65 and keep my micro above it. Says to be around 5amp/hr. What have you seen?

I love it. I use best practices with mine (pre-chill on AC, load with cold items, keep full, open minimally) and I'm averaging 2AH or less. (Remembering that 5A is the draw when running, but it doesn't run 100% of time). I've gone ~2 days on my 100AH battery, but any longer than that and I need the solar. With a 60Watt panel placed out in the sun, it's nearly indefinite for me.

Main benefit for me is that the front-opening design fits my space much better than the chest style, so it's way more space efficient.
