As a person who has built kegerators and keezers. and someone who has been trained in "AC" systems.... I would place holes in the bottom and top of the divider board. Place a small computer fan on the top of the panel, sucking air from the fridge side. this will draw 'hot' air of the fridge and blow it into the freezer..... this suction will draw cold air (holes drilled down low) from the bottom of the freezer. place a probe to control the fan near the top of fridge. This will maintain the fridge. the freezer will self regulate based on the demands the fridge and freezer signal through the freezer sensor. I did something similar to this in a keezer build with a friend. I built a false bottom. I drilled holes in the floor where the kegs would leave a path for air. with a divider, the fan sucked air from two "tunnels" created by the kegs, and blew that sucked air up one of the channels. So two downward flowing air spaces and one blowing up. without this, the keezer could never keep the kegs cold.... things would freeze... or be warm. with this gentle air flow things really equalized. I have used Inkbird controllers with zero issue. My friend had a 120v version fail on him. it was the relay tips locking up. I personally have had zero issues with my setups. I have had 4 or 5 units. I would use a 12v unit if I were you. 12v for the fan, 12v for the regulator... easy.
Maybe I missed it, but I hope the freezer is planned to go lower than 24 consistently? Because if you plan on doing some fishing off the boat (I would assume you are), unless you're reeeeeeeally thorough in inspecting your catch, you need to freeze it down to -5ºF for 24 hrs to get rid of parasites (or at least below 5-8ºF ish, but would then need longer time in the freezer). Obviously a bigger problem in some things/areas than others, but unless you plan on going through the arctic and/or antarctic regions it can be a huge problem. Obviously it depends on how you usually cook your fish or plan to (if at all) but please be careful, e.g. Anisakiasis can be very nasty and even trigger some allergies you didn't know you had...
The folks on “Onboard Lifestyle” channel repaired their compressor fan and modified their ventilation when their freezer temp got “up to 11 degrees”. My fridge at home’s default setting is zero degrees for the freezer and 34 for the fridge.
Taratibu Hi, I built my yacht freezer,( 4 cubic ft) back In1994, the tub is aluminum with aluminum piping attached to the tub, (5 sides) then 5” of insulation on the outside the tub-is the evaporator plate and the condenser is in one of the FW tanks, No fan so big power saving plus very efficient freezer, had not one problem since.
Dear Arabellas Acorns 👍👌👏 Simply fantastic again (video and work)! What a spraying beast! Maybe name it steam dragon? ;-) It definitely needs a kind of stove pipe to be on the safe side while operating it. Thanks a lot for making teaching explaining recording editing uploading and sharing. Best regards luck and health to all of you.
Coffee and Acorn to Arabella. :) If only I hadn't been awake for four hours already! It might be worthwhile to grab one or two cheap, battery-powered thermometers that can also keep an eye on the fridge and freezer temp separate from the main probe.
Good morning A2A crew. Coffee and my favorite people. KP was in their glory being the tool fetcher. Such hard work! KP you crack me up. Fire in the hole! The beard trim looks good Steve. I can't wait till next week to see the planks put in.
On the refrigerator front, have you considered using one of those 'Digital IR Infrared Thermometer Temperature Gun' to measure the temperature of the inside and outside to see how good the insulation is? I know they are not accurate, but within a few degrees, is a good way of seeing how good everything is.
A Mainer trick is to use plastic milk containers filled with water, freeze them solid and place them in the freezer. It should use less energy to maintain.
You can buy some of those at this neat little boatyard on Spruce Head… the one not far from Owls Head. Years ago, saw a sign for ice and went ashore to pay the honor box for a nice, self-contained block of ice. They’re perfect, and last a long time because that cold water stays out around the ice! -Anne
Just bought an Ecoflow for my 21’ trailer sailer tri. It powers sailing instruments, lights etc. An excellent alternative to a conventional battery onboard. I just charge it up before I go out and with a portable 150W solar panel onboard can keep it charged if I go out for a few days.
Finast kind! Waiting for the mist to stop here in Newbury so I can get the bottom finished. We'll all be on the water before you know it ... See you guys out there! 👍
I would suggest putting a rotating air damper (like the air damper on the firebox door of a wood fired stove) in that refrigerator divider plate, so if you find that you havne't nailed it on the first try, you can readily adjust the flow from freezer to fridge.
That is what's used in conventional refrigerator/freezer combos. When you turn the dial it opens or closes a small damper valve. Easy Peasy. Give it to Old George Westinghouse to figure out a simple solution.
Friday evenings after work are so nice with your videos to have for dessert! Today I have to focus again on the sound: The sound recording and production is of such a high level! I am wearing good, big, noise cancelling headphones and while they give great fidelity, they also tend to give a closed feel. Not with your videos, where placement of noises is all around me, and I can distinguish one from another… to the point where, while brushing my teeth, something out of shot unexpectedly clattered to the ground and I jumped, ripping off my headphones… because I thought it had happened in my apartment!! Ben’s music is sublime as ever, and he is evolving his daring, now with purely synth tracks mixed in prominently, I approve of pushing onwards! Favourite has to be the ‘classic’ Fundis though, which reached Knopfler level in my estimation and thus full goosebumps… were it not for my giggling, because where does he deploy it? Right after your wonderful guest declares his desire for terrifying experiments and you all join in to unload in order to make mad things happen. That juxtaposition can not have been accident? Ending with steam that sounds as respect-inducing as it looks. Oh, and Akiva takes part once or twice and sounds so lovely too. Thank you all!
Thank you for this extremely thoughtful comment! It’s very kind, but also, lets us know what the experience is out there of what we’re doing with excellent detail. Cheers!
When the fridge and freezer are full or at least half capacity, the efficacy will increase since you will have temp controlled mass in the space. Way more efficient then. Harder to maintain a temp in an empty space.
@@AcornToArabella And good luck finding the golden balance! From bitter experience I can tell you that both insufficiently chilled ice cream and freezing soda bottles can be detrimental to health 😎
We had a steam generator just like that at Taves Boat yard in Provincetown years ago. Had it hooked up to a long wooden steam box. Steamed lots of yellow pine planks and white oak frames for fishing boats. Worked great
Some thoughts I had about Arabella's refrigerator. The condensing unit's current draw increased when you turned the fan speed to medium and, I believe, it dropped as the increased air flow lowered the head pressure. I did not see a corresponding drop off when the fan was increased to high which tells me that medium was the best speed under those conditions. A head pressure control could be added to automatically control the fan speed for peak performance based on varying heat loads and ambient temperatures. I would have expected the box temperature probe to have been located in the refrigerator section, adjusted to maintain the desired temp at around 35 degrees, so that the freezer would always be lower based on airflow allowed across the divider.
Happy Friday! As always, great video. That refrigerator is impressive. Looks like it holds more than I thought it would. I'm getting emotional thinking about there not being a building Arabella video one day! Keep up the good work and tell Grandma and Grandpa I said hello. Akiva gets a pet too. Y'all take care.
That steam generator reminds me of space heater that I used last year. LPG powered with electric fan, it put out a 12 inch flame and made short work of the winter cold, helping to cure cement overlay flooring. Bastard thing had a faulty earth connection and shocked the shit out of me. Despite the shock, it made our days easier getting away from site before it was too dark to see for the final polish of the floor...
I'm pretty sure you could clean the tanks of a crude oil freighter with that steam cleaner in quick order. I know you could clean the fuel island of any truck stop with it. As far as steam bending planks for the boat, you could bag the entire boat and reshape the entire hull, from starting the steam, in under three hours, probably 🤔😉😁.
I listened to "Styx come sail away" today. It reminded me of your incredible project. All those involved in the project are very inspiring people. Best regards from Europe/Austria/Salzburg
Worked for a company years ago that had a steam ginny inside a shed, it was huge, ran off diesel, would MELT PAINT off of truck frames. It did a great job of cleaning anything.
You can run a deep discharge AGM battery down to 20% though, that's one of the main reasons to use AGM. Flooded-cell lead acid batteries are the ones that will die if continuously below 50%.

You can run a deep discharge AGM battery down to 20% though, that's one of the main reasons to use AGM. Flooded-cell lead acid batteries are the ones that will die if continuously below 50%.
The steam generator is very impressive and very practical. Be great for roasting marshmallows too😅
Kinda wild, eh?
If you could set up the compressor coils ducting so it gets passive airflow, you may never need to run the fan.
Interesting, Kirby! Yeah we’re thinking that in most of the places where we’d like to travel, we’d not have to use the fan much.
It's ALIVE!
