For all lay persons I wanted to report how well the Norcold / Engel / ARB fridge freezer works. I picked up a used Norcold 45 qt last winter for about 360.00. First I’m running with 2 AGM type batteries at 75 amp hours each hooked up in parallel. I have a Grandby and the freezer is mounted on the driver’s side as there is a gap between the counter and wall.
I went camping for 3 days the temp in the shade inside the camper was 107 degrees. The freezer work great. It was set at the freezer setting all weekend the battery meter stayed on the good setting (green light) it dropped when I used the water, but it went right back to green.
The one thing I noticed the area where the compressor is got very warm. Anyone else notice this with this type of freezer. I'm thinking on placing a fan there. any comments?
