Hi everyone,
I have a question about charger/inverter and fridge.

My unit has a 2 dor 2 way fridge (propane and 110v) is there any way to rewire that one socket so the 12v - 110v system is running all the time with a stock charger / inverter or should I upgrade the inverter.
I would like to have the fridge running while we are traveling. When we stop I usually plug into shore power or use the generator.
Any suggestions or a possible wiring diagram for the charger/inverter to make this work. I assume the stock charger/inverter is something small like 2 or 3000 amps.
Thanks in advance

Why not use the propane?

I just use my propane. It uses very little and is convenient.

Units with RV fridges don't come with inverters. I believe you are confusing the charger/converter for an inverter.
Like said, run the fridge on LP when on the road. It should automatically go on LP when power is lost.
