Doing a trial with the 40l Anniversary edition Engel as a dedicated freezer set to -14C.
Freezer is in the back of a Prado with solarscreens fitted to the rear windows
Having trouble keeping the battery charged up when sitting for a couple of days with overcast conditions. I charge the dual battery system in the Prado when at camp through our camper which has 240W solar hooked up to it.
Questions:
Is this temp too low/too high?
What typical amps used over a 24 hour period in ambient temp of high 20’s should I expect.
Planning an extended trip next year and looking at ways to store bulk food.
I can always throw more solar at it if needed.
Thanks in advance
