I haven't been paying as much attention to all this as I should have,
I can't get my fridge to light ... Leaving in 2hrs for work then for
Packwood after work, looks like my refrigerator is going to be an ice
box this trip.

As I recall the real value of the Vitrifrigo is the low electric
usage (besides the size & fit in the Westy). The fridge I have now
(that won't light) works fine as long as I'm driving or plugged into
shore power <vbg>. With that Norcold DC fridge (or any other RV
fridge) you have to do the research & math to see if it's reasonable
for the amount of battery you carry.
