Hello
I’ve just bought a camper van which has a solar panel fitted. I was led to believe that the solar panel would keep my fridge going for a couple of days but I seem to be only getting one day max out of the battery.. The solar panel is 100watt and the fridge specs say it takes 5amps (but I’m assuming this is only when the compressor fires up). I have the van on drive at hone so can fully charge the battery. But when I remove power the batteries drop quite quickly over 12hrs - and that’s without opening the fridge! Is this “normal’? The batteries are new btw.
