hi, we are looking at buying a portable freezer, I'm guessing around the 31 to 50 litre size. we were looking at a waeco then the chescold and now the evakool seems to be the best on what I've read up. my question is what sized deepcycle battery and solar panel would you say we would need, the evakool seems to have the less battery drain than the others. we are looking for something that will keep the freezer powered up for around a week of 'bush type camping'. we intend on only using it only as a freezer so it wont be opened all the time, properly only once a day. also do you think that the price of the extra battery and solar panel would workout cheaper in the longrun than filling a gas bottle every month if we got a 3 way freezer?
our intentions are to travel around this great country and to bush camp most time with staying in a caravan park around once a week or so, when possible.
thanks for your help which I'm sure i will get going by my previous experiences Chris.
