Any info would help! thanks              Ask Onan and others re: conversion kits. The generator will be de-rated       about 15-20%.       -----------------------------              Refrigerators with inverter compressors have lower starting current surges       that reduce the size of the generator or solar inverter required to run       them.       https://forum.solar-electric.com/discussion/354402/fridge-7-amps-vs-2-1-amps              My Alpicool T60 12VDC inverter fridge+freezer draws about 2.5A running and       less than 5A starting. It can also take 24V and is a good match to solar       battery power. It's a hedge against food supply chain shortages that a       grocery store manager told me may last 5-10 years.              Reducing CO2 will force us to make lifestyle changes and lose some of the       high impact convenience we presently enjoy, for example needing to manually       defrost more efficient freezers and line-dry laundry. Much can be done now       to reduce our personal energy consumption instead of just whining, demanding       and blaming others.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
