Interesting, Frank.  Why 7 amps??? Like Dave Etter, are you trying  to run
the Dometic fridge??

        Malcolm, not trying to run  the Dometic on electricity but trying to
run a Koolatron fridge drawing 3.5  amps.  So far so good but that Koolatron
looks like it will draw down the  battery after darkness in a few hours.  No
I'm looking for a battery  saver that will automatically shut down that fridge
when the battery reaches 11  volts.  Since the Koolatron Cargo Cooler model I
have has it's own four  hour battery and is well insulated it should stay cool
till the sun comes up  again.
