I have 2015 38 GK .I have two group 31 deep cycle battery's I understand while I'm hooked up to truck battery's are being charged. My question is if truck is disconnected.
How long will refrigerator be able to run off inverter. I turn off ice maker because they have a heating element to release cubes. I believe the refrigerator operates on about 4 Amps after start up.If I make a two hour stop during a trip will refrigerator stay cold with no other load on.

Any comments would help. Lee Manne

Shane ,

Did you have to change the settings on your inverter/charger once you changed to AGM's?
