    Anyone Running a Dometic Fridge? 12 or 24v?

    any updates? I would say one last thing you could do is just put the fridge right next to the starting batteries and hook it up with the factory lead and see how it runs. Keep a voltmeter on the actual battery (do not care what the fridge says) and if the battery voltage drops below 12v (or even...

    Anyone Running a Dometic Fridge? 12 or 24v?

    Hope you made some progress.... just thought I would add that while my m1010 already was 12v only I would be hesitant to say that running at 27v is a bad thing. That is 13.5v/battery. I watch the charge on both my m1010 now and my 6.5l 91 sierra and both of them will vary the voltage depending...

    Anyone Running a Dometic Fridge? 12 or 24v?

    I hope I was clear in my post that my "running" measurements were the fridge running, I never started the truck at all. That said Id be curious to see what the voltage was if you spike in to the cord near the fridge. It should stay above 24v at that point (truck off fridge on) and then unplug...

    Anyone Running a Dometic Fridge? 12 or 24v?

    That is 11.8v per battery. Where and how are you taking this measurement? If you draw your batteries down past that you are starting to harm them. I would say that even this is too low. Is this reading taken under load? (sounds like it) if so what do they come up to after 30 seconds of no load...

    Anyone Running a Dometic Fridge? 12 or 24v?

    I have that fridge, just run it off a leisure 12v battery and have never had any issue. This sounds like it could be a wire gauge issue as mentioned above. How many total feet of wire are you running from the fridge to the power supply and what gauge? I cut the stock wire as close as I could...
