Wouldn’t there be some power loss by going from 12 V to 120 and transforming it back to 12? Assuming that’s what the cooler/fridge runs on. Rather than just hooking it up directly to 12 V. You might be better off not using your inverter for the cooler.
yes he is correct. I too made this mistake when I first started powering my fridge. its not really a mistake but you would be able to get longer power times from your batteries if you are able to hook up a 12v socket to your battery to power your fridge. you're videos are awesome and have been helpful in many of my overloading set up decisions.
Actually, it's a pretty good review video. I liked the real-world test and timing to show cool down. One thing to consider is that the cool down time will change drastically if the fridge is full. Yes, 12V is the way to go. I literally spit my drink out all over my keyboard when he said he had a 3000w inverter to power his fridge.
